Correct. I don't have the measurement, but it is obvious to the eye that they stick out... gotta be close to 2". Some don't mind the look, some do.
Fair enough, if the stance is anything like my current truck with +18 offset then I dont mind but if its sticking out 3-4"+ then I would prefer not to go that route.

What’s the spacing between the rear tires look like? Picture? Measurement?
I have about an inch loaded with a gooseneck and skidsteer. It's closer where the sidewall lugs are, but no touching at all.

Finally got the 255/80/17 Nitto Ridge Grapplers on.
Got 34k miles out of the Nexens.

Hello,
First time poster, been a lurker for a few months. After reading this post I bit the bullet and put on the Mickey Thompson Baja Boss AT 255/85/R17's on my 22 limited long bed. Stock suspension and no spacers in the rear. Looks are great except where the shop damaged all 6 wheels with the tire machine and will be replacing all 6 wheels. The tires are not touching (about 1/4" between the sidewall lugs) but I have the 1/2 spacer and will be installing tomorrow to give the rear duals more space in-between the side walls.

Looks good! Great call on the spacers, a little more gap is definitely needed

That sucks man. I had all my night edition wheels scratched when I had my tires mounted. Then had one of the wheel weights from the front tire come off and go into the LR inner tire causing a flat after leaving the shop. I went with cover AT III's since I couldn't any baja's I stock at the time

Yeah instead of clamping the rims from the bead side they clamped the inner wheel and the teeth bit straight through the powder coat and into the aluminum. The quote from dodge is almost 6k to replace all 6 wheels but I am sure the shop will be able to get them at a better price through their wholesale contract. I will be calling the store manager today to get everything arranged for them to replace everything.

It took them until the 6th wheel to figure out they were damaging them? Geez.

Hopefully i'll get less than 34k on my nexxens so i can upgrade tires. I'm halfway to 34k as is.
I was going to change them right away but ended up doing a ton of highway driving. Only time it really sucked was right before Thanksgiving. I got caught out in a snow storm and had a fun time getting traction going through the hills of West Virginia.

same - I commute 2.5 hours twice a week from/to my place of work, so i'm just racking up the highway mileage on these crap tires before going to a better 35" AT tire.

Has anyone gone with the Toyo Open Country AT3 in LT255/80R17?
