    Thanks man,
    Yeah I will have to live with that tire for a little while, but at least I know what I want when the time comes.

No idea of what their design goals are, no info on fender clearances, offsets, any of the other important info....as if there's some magic one size fits all formula out there for modified vehicles. Love what you do.
    Thanks man, I research everything and measure and check fitment 24 times before I fabricate or buy something. I'm nutty that way.lol
