I Ian Gross Active Member Joined Jun 20, 2006 Messages 207 Reaction score 0 Location Boyertown, PA Apr 13, 2009 #4 Ive got 285 75 R16's with my torsen bars almost maxed and I dont have any issues. No wheel spacers either. I used to have 265's and considering what the 285's did to my gas milage I think my next set might be 275's. Ian
