installed some new tires the other day on the truck, was going to go with bfg 295, but did not get that great of mileage out of the 285bfg(45k) and thought also of going with the 305 procomps,(tire dealer has not been over impressed with them as well) so i went with the toyo, liked the look as well, bfg295 would of been a bit wider, but the life i had been told went to the toyo left the torsion bars the same as the 285 even thou these are .5" taller, get a bit of rubbing on hard left turn, here is a bit of info and pictures afterwards

I have some 295s on order. Do you have any more pics? How about a whole truck picture? What mods did you have to do to make the front fit? I know torsion/green key mod, but what all else? I can see you cut your bumper some. Do you think moving the bumper forward would replace the need to cut it? Please more pics...you have my color and my size tires...!!!

Did you paint the white lettering with something? I've never seen Toyos with solid white lettering.

WOW!!!!!!!
The white lettering is really something!!!!!
:lol2:

Ummmm.... is no response a bad thing?
):h

ya i wish i could of got white lettering, but they were on a 3 month backorder, he threw me a few paint pens and said go to it, truckers do it all the time, and ya i am not the best painter in lines, daughter can do better, here is a few more pictures, i did not raise the torsion bars over the 285 i had on prior, and when i first raised the torsion bars, they were tured up 4 turns over stock, thats it, no green keys or other suspenion work, i did cut the front bottom farring of the bumper molding a few inches back, and have a slight rub over curbes, low tire noise compared to the bfg

Thanks for the added pictures. Looks great and cant wait for my tires to come in. Do you think that if you would of moved the bumper forward you would of had to cut the bumper? Did you have to trim any other plastic in the wheel well?
