Looks tight up front. Are you getting any rubbing at all? I did that with my 99' t4r and found out the hard way it needed bigger springs

Very slight rub at right full lock when backing up at more than 5mph (maybe just more audible) so I felt it's not a big deal.
However a lift is being planned for future off road trips.

nice MGM ya got there! toyota katy almost ordered 275 KO2 by mistake and i almost just told em to go with it, but i was worried about both rubbing and a rougher ride bc 275 only came in E load rating.
any subjective/noticeable roughness to the ride?
did you recalibrate speedo etc?
what off-road park did you go to?

I can only compare them to the factory Dunlop's. I wouldn't say BFG's are rough - they are definitely more stiff, but at the same time provide a more composed ride quality. Dunlop's felt soft and the truck tend to swing side to side more easily, I believe it's due to their thinner side walls.
The factory tires have about 98.3% circumference of my new 275s, I can live with a slightly inaccurate speedo.
I go to BVORR in College Station (google it). Nice group of off roaders and it's free!
