2 all day long. Don't like black. Don't like carpet either. Don't have that choice in a king ranch. Get yourself some thugerish floor mats. & some km 2's.

For the tire size question, I have 325/65/18's on my fx4 (2.5" level) which is like 12.75" wide and close to 35" tall. I get slight rub on my Upper and lower control arm, but only at full lock turn. Even then it barely rubs.

I would say anything 12.5" wide or less will work without rub, as long as you don't have huge lugs on the sidewall (like mud grapplers).

Thanks for the info! How much do they stick out from the fender flare? Which brand/model did you go with?

I like those Weathertec ones too.

km 2's.


Not sure that I'll be able to get these with the size I want (trying to keep the width inside the fender flare) on 20" rims

I never go wider than original tires, just preference. I like clearance. I have km-2's on my wife's truck & both of mine. Lots of good tires, I'm a if it ain't broke on fix it kind of guy. Ran Remington mud brutes from 92 to 12. They sold the tread. You can still find them on the inter-web tho. Put a set of 33in km-2's onTacoma & put 20000 miles on them. Amazing tire, doesn't look I've put 20 miles on them. All 3 trucks, same width, just 2 sizes taller. Doesn't effect fuel mileage that much either.

Do those 285's rub at all? I'm looking at maybe getting the Goodyear Duratrac's and it's available in both 275 and 285.


Not sure if you've received an answer on this, but I had mentioned in another thread that I run this exact set up. They dont rub at all

They're still inside the fender flares.

I went with fierce attitude m/t's. they're a cheaper tire made by Dunlop, but some of my buddies have had good experiences with them.

Yeah I wasn't sure how much I would like them, but I love em.

Ride wayyy better than the toyo m/t's I had before. I still need to test them out in the mud though.

Cool. Figured the 325 would be too wide to fit inside.
