Tire question

Will a 275 series tire fit okay on a stock 8" GT wheel?

Yes. I have the same specs as Cajun, but BFG KDW-G-FORCE. They will fit w/ no problem. Be prepared to be pulled into every rut, but worth the hassle.

RE: Tire question

275s will fit but they are over the max of what the rim can handle. You will acutally be runing the contact patch. 265's are the max for the rim and will maximize the contact patch. But as a note Nitto DRs run narrow and a 275 fits fine.

Depends on the tire.
