Just posted the pix of my Dmax with the Weld Outback, 4 5/8 backspace with Interco 285x75x16 tires. see my Dmax link on my sig.

The tires are a little lound when turning sharp due to the side lugs. freeway speed they aren't as bad as i anticipated. i'm sure they'll worsen with mileage, but they aren't near as loud as my old MFG M/T's...

New tires look great. Really fills the wheel wells nicely. Thanks for the pictures, it makes my decision much easier knowing what to expect.

Thanks,

I'm quite happy with the result. I got the spare mounted last night and installed under the bed. it still clears my exhaust by a good 4 inches and required no manipulation to get it up in there...

Now my speedo is off by 3.3 MPH at 55 MPH according to my Garmin GPS. I'll test again on my trip to Tahoe this weekend...

the 285's ran me $136.95 as i said i saw them on sale smile.gif that was at local store so no shipping.. they actually sold me the weld's for $210.00 each.

How about another question. According to Interco's web page, both the 285/75 and the 255/85 measure 32.7 inches. What do they measure on your truck?
