Any feedback about putting some good off road A/T's on the T-Reg, like BFG A/T's or any other style. I notice most of the photos showing off-road T-Regs majority have All Weather Tires it looks like..... Looking for more aggressive beefier tires and stance on this vehicle... Any advice would be great!

They do rub on the rear of the fender liners (both front fender liners, at about 1/2 turn or more); this is most noticed when backing out of a parking spot (it seems to make more noise in reverse than going forward); but is annoying in the rain (when its wet it squeals instead of just the "brushing" sound in the dry)... Additionally, to clear the upper ball joint, a 5mm wheel spacer is required on the front (I ordered mine from eBay, seller "AkataSpacer")
As for the tires, I got them form Discount Tire Direct (Home - Discount Tire Direct), couldn't be happier... I think they were around $190/tire (they partially price matched four of them as I had ordered 265/65 Dynapro AT/M's, but an inventory mishap lead to them not actually having them)... The $190 price is what I remember paying for my spare (which is needed when increasing the tire size, as the factory spare won't be tall enough to keep the AWD system happy)

Hopefully I can find these in the right size and not worry about the larger part, However those tires look amazing at that size and would love that look. Its always hard, but after driving a car for a while I have ruined a few tires.
Im really looking for a tough sturdy set capable of off-road and still good on cornering and handling. How do you like the handling of those tires and every bust one as of yet? The Nitto's specifically.

By the way, How does one turn on the Fog Lights? LOL missing that part of the book and its not on the dial and don't see it on the left hand side?
Turn headlights to on postition and pull the knob.

Love my new Nitto Terra Grapplers. Just saw there is a recall but I am not worried. They will just put on a new set. They ride great on our bad Phoenix roadways!!

Hi there,
What rims are you using? Size and offset. I'm thinking of getting 285/65/17" as we do not have the 285/60/18" tire in South Africa.

Stock 18"x8" "Manhattan" wheels, I think they are ET57, and I am running a 5mm spacer in the front to clear the suspension pieces
