AR Chamber w/285 Terra Grapplers

Is anyone out there running this combination ?

If so, are you running the 17 x 9 ? Have you had any issues and do you have any pictures ?

Thanks for the help.

Air2Air is running 18" with (I think) 305's. Those are like friggin' road-rollers. . . but they do look pretty cool.

Rival14, how is the FJ handling the 295s ? Any rubbing issues when articulated or otherwise ?

I lean towards staying with 285s in Indiana to: avoid hydroplaning, avoid loss of mileage, and maintain decent tractions on snow and ice.

Im pretty impressed really. No wandering, pretty quiet and my gears still seem tall enough to turn them ok. Not having any rubbing with the ome lift whatsoever.

right now they are aired to 45 for mileage and if i am conservative with my driving i am still getting 310 from from 16 gallons so thats just under 20mpg for all combined driving.

have had them in some pretty slushy conditions a few weeks back and they just chewed right thru it. Been pretty dry and warm in colorado so far so i havent done any icy roads yet, but with the siping they have and airing down to say 32 i dont forsee any issues at all.

Re: AR Chamber w/285 Terra Grapplers

Thanks for the info and PM Rival14. I will definitely consider the 295s.
