Well, I totally went spontaneous on this one and have bit the bullet. :Boo: on me for jumping the gun but gonna ride it out.
I have them on my jeep and have done some testing. The only way I've gotten them to noticibly rub so far is sharp turning, which in fairness, so did my stocks. I tried taking them over small boulders(about 8" high), brutal speed bumps, and any mounds I could find, while going straight then also turning and nothing happened at any speed. I kept speeding up until it felt like I was just punishing the car for rubbing satisfaction, but it never rubbed. I hit a speed bump straight on at way more speed than I ever hit them to see if that rubbed, and it did not. I drove over some moguls in this dirt area at about 30mph which is beyond reasonable for how that would have been travelled by me. I also tried every which way possible in this off road area to max out the articulation at turn to see what I could get to rub, but I never got it to. So, straight wise, I think short of damaging the car, they aint gonna rub. Believing the issue will probably show itself while turning in with articulation or racing into a steep parking lot driveway type scenario, I decided to climb various curbs of height at or above 80degree of turn-in at various low speeds(not trying to break an alignment over the test). No rub so far. I guess I will get bit eventually on something or other, but I just don't wheel hard enough to probably see the issue so far. I guess pull up a chair, grab your popcorn, and wait for the picture of my ripped off plastics, cause at least we can all have a laugh when it happens. :icon_lol: I bet it happens on a simple U-turn with a bunch of passengers, but not while doing anything I do off road which is mainly mud, snow, and light stuff. I should also mention, I chose these tires based on looks and review/rating, but I am not what you guys would call an off roader.
