285/75 or 295/70 on +18 wheel

Which of these is easier to fit on 2.5 in lift up front?

 

295/70/18 will be easier to fit. I have had both in a 3 inch. I went from the 295/70/18 to the 285/75/18 and had to do more trimming and heating when I made the switch. I even had to cut the tabs off the factory skid plate.

295/70/18


285/75/18

 

Planning for a 295/70/18 +60 OE, Bilstein 6112/5160,3rd setting. End of summer is the plan. Still debating on tires tho, Nokian outpost or Yokohama.

 

That sounds like a good plan @OHwendTrd . I had good luck with my Toyo AT’s before I switched to the Kenda Klever RT’s. The 6112 Settings and Tire/Wheel thread should have plenty of information on similar setups as well.

I'm on 295/70R18 Nitto Ridge Grapplers on mine. The setup is a set of Radflo 2.5's with 650 lb coils. I haven't adjusted the collars so the truck sits about .5-1" over stock. I've got spidertrax 1.25" spacers on all 4 corners, and a set of Toytec .75" front bumper spacers. No rub and the truck drives and wheels fine.

 

285/75 +18s on a 2/1.5 lift. Had to cut the front mud flaps in a few spots and cut/push the front liner. I like it, but I also kind of want to see if a 305/70 would clear next time.

 

Probably going 295 as they don't make the tire I want in 285.
