Droop/Down travel question

As much as I want 34-35's, this thread has convinced me to stay with 285/70/17's.

But for those of you that have been able to make bigger tires work, your trucks look fantastic. I appreciate the work you've put into it.

 

I thinking going with a 295/75R16 or a skinny 35x10.5 is pretty doable with a 2.5in lift and proper backspacing & offset. The right wheels make a big difference in what we can fit.

Work has been busy so hopefully I'll get to measure the droop with and without the coilover this weekend.

 

If you're able to make it work with full articulation, we'll all be excited (and schooled, in the best way possible)! So far, we've seen 'em mounted, but either the truck can't do everything we want it to off road, or the truck panels get trashed on big hits. Please post here when you make this happen.
