OME lift: 265's or 285's?

[Casper421]

Im 95% sure im going with the OME885's with spacer and Toytec Superflex coils in the rear. Should i run 265's or 285's?

Im gonna run studded 265's during the winter. Should i get a set of 285's for summer/offroading or stay with 265's year round? Im aware that 33's decrease mpg's and acceleration more but the Firestones im looking at arent the LT tires. The 285 Destination AT's im looking at only weigh 44lbs compared to 40lbs for the 265 Destination AT's and 36lbs for the stock Dunlop AT20's. Will the extra 16lbs make that much of a difference in mpg between 265's and 285's?

Whats your input?

IMO the 885's and depending on what spacer you get may not be enough lift to run those 285's without major trimming in the front, i run about 3.7" up front, and 3" in the back and my 33"'s still look kind of small, otherwise in your case and IMO, when i had 265's on my car and had a small lift, they still looked really small and goofy, ... have you checked out a 275? - might be your best bet for what your going for

Alex, i see you have superflex coils. How do you like them? Hows the ride?

the ride is great!!! i have the 1" spacer so i can have a bit of rake, the only thing i wish i would have done would have gone with a stiffer coil in the rear, because when we tow our wakeboat it sags like a mother, but otherwise its fantastic!
