Got to be careful on the rear as lifting the profile may push against the guards and the shocks are wound pretty high.

You must be running very low at the rear, the tyres your looking at - 245/45-16 - are only about 625 tall. Most commonly guys are running 650 to 660mm, will help with final drive ratio though if your running a low diff ratio. I'm using a 255/60-15 bridgestone a present, great tyre but to tall for me at 688mm am suffering some rubbing in harsh dips.

REPTYL found some 16" Michelin before the nats - If your there Jason, how have they been? Maybe you could PM him to find out.

I was looking through some of the U.S posts the other day and some of those guys are running 255/60-15 on the front
Mustn't be Cobra's, might be AC Tractors or somethin.
