Hey guys, what size rear tire are you running? I'm still at stock ride height and would like to get the widest nitto 555R under it I can. Pics would be great if you have them. Thanks.

12in torque thrust 2's. On a 315 sumitomo. They fit but very close to the bump stops when suspension is compressed

315/35/17 Nitto 555's on 17x11's ... "hose mod" + S60 = stock height give or take a 1/4" or so.
