pics of the new tires on
this is what it looked like when i first bought it before the lift kit and stuff
and here it is as it sits now with a 2" RTE lift with OME shocks and the new(to me) BFG Mud terrains size 265/75's... i still need to trim the rear quarter panels and work out a slight rubbing issue when i turn real sharp... i think i may order up some 1" coil spacers to get a little more clearance...sorry about the quality its a cell phone pic...

I like the looks of it. Can't wait until mine has a similar stance. I've already decided on 235/85's after I put the lift on.
I would put money that your rubbing is the tire rubbing on the trailing arm (or whatever Rover calls it). I had the same problem with my 2001 Dodge when I put 305/70R16's under the stock suspension on stock wheels. I just resigned myself to the fact an extended cab, long box truck wasn't going to turn sharp anyway and left it alone. A wheel with less backspacing or a smaller wheels spacer should push the tires out far enough to eliminate your rubbing problem.

i think i may order the RTE 2" spacers... but i know if i go up that much more i am gonna run into pinion angle issues or driveshaft problems and i will need to extend my brake lines and a few other things... maybe next year when i get back from this two month job i have to do out of town...
