I have changed my 28"x11.5"s for 30"x9" the 28's were too wide and a lot more work to fit them and maybe new control arms, If you already got those tires here is a video that might help, if you are planning on getting them for 1 inch less maybe you dont need to do all that. And to fit the 30"s I got adjustables rear arms to pull the tire to the front but no more problems cuz they are not too wide, and better rpm by the way
