Yeah, they are really narrow but the side walls bubble alot. They hit everything in the inner fender well. I had to remove both BS and I put 1/8" spacers on although that arent on in those pics.

Did you try the BS relocation brackets? They might help you out.

I bought a set and got rid of them within 10k miles. They did not fit the rim all that well (narrow) and the tread voids are huge. Also there is no rim protector, but for the price they are hard to beat.

I had those for a few months, didnt like them. Finaly threw down for bfg 315s and they are much wider than the sumos, also preform 100 times better. Although the sumos are nicer on the wallet!

Those Yokohama AVS are huge. I liked them but they are $300 a tire compared to $100. I really like the Yokohamas.
