255/85/16 Copper S/T or Others

[bigwheel]

I am thinking about running 255's on the 2004 with 884 and spidertrax. I was going to get the 285's but thinking the 255 might be a better opition. Trying to stay with an AT just for the fact of a lot of hwy miles. I know BlairB is running some 255's is anyone else on 4th gen? How much more triming would be needed over a 285? Does anyone have any likes or dislikes on the coppers or the 255/85/16 tires? What kind of milage are you guys getting out of 255's?

Thanks

255s will be just slightly bigger than the 285s, so slightly more trimming and/or lift will be necessary. A lot depends on brand.

I don't know of an AT tire in that size. They're all mud terrain LT tires. If you want a freeway friendly p-rated AT you should stick with something in 285/75s, or even look at 235/85s.
