Rough Country 3inch Kit
295/70/r18 (34.5”) Cooper Discoverer AT3 XLT
Pro Comp 40 Series Vertigo Wheels
Relocated Fender Liner
16.5 inches of clearance at running boards behind front tires. 17.5 inches of clearance at running boards I front of rear wheels.

No rub whatsoever with this setup!
Can you share what Rough Country lift kit that you used?

Was it a straight bolt on for the rear? The company I am talking to said that is their only concern.

Thanks!

That’s the kit which moves the rear wheel rear wards to center it back into the arch, correct?

The tire sizing is so close. The 295/70/18 is 34.3 wide and 11.6 tall and the 285/75 is taller at 34.8 but narrower at 11.2
Would love to see a 3 Timberlines with 285/70, 285/75 and 295/70 to see which is too much in height and which is too much in width. The 295 is 1.2" inches wider than stock, wonder if it fits in the wheel well with stock rims or is a 285 with 11.2 width the way to go 3/4" bigger than stock.
We will see on Tuesday - I have Nitto Recon Grapplers 295/70/18 being mounted on stock rims

Mounted 295/70/18 Recon Grapplers - no clearance issues. Big improvement from OEM. I was prepared to modify fender liners but will wait to see what I need after flexing.
Any side profiles? Did it add any poke?

I'm getting ready to install my old 285/70 R18's with the Black Rhino wheels later today. I am just waiting for the new lug nuts to arrive. The stock ones are too wide at the base and would not fit on the Black Rhino wheels.

I do like the stock wheels. So, my other option is to swap the tires off the Black Rhino's and on the stock wheels. Since the Black Rhinos are already setup, I want to try them first. There is a HUGE offset difference between the two -- 44mm OEM versus 12mm BR.

Really no poke at all but they are a +44 - I’m prob going to space them out a little.

Added my 285/70 R18 Nitto Ridge Grapplers on the Black Rhino Chambers (12mm offset).

I did some intentional super sharp turns forward and back as if I was pulling my camper into a campsite. No rubbing. No trimming either.

I am still going to add a 2" puck lift for it and then replace the tires with 285/75 R18's when my current ones need replaced. This will take me from a 34" x 11.5" to a 35" X 11.5" tire.

Unfortunately, I forgot to take before shots to compare. Sorry.

I have always been a BfGoodrich K02 buyer. They do not see this size. What made you pick the Recon?
Do you know which is like the BFGoodrich?

I see they have Ridge, Terra G2, Recon, Terra AT
