    Dang, this is really making me want to get some. I've never seen them in person but the first time I saw a picture, I was instantly in love.

    Neil, thanks for the review. You're not running spacers, right?

    Hey I got one more question for you guys, did you have to trim the tow hitch bolts to fit the spare?

    Really that tight? I heard that a 255/75/17 fits after modification so I wouldn't suspect it to be that tight with a 245/75/17. I might just keep my stock spare and save some money.

    I can't see a 255/75R17 fitting down there unless it was totally deflated and the trailer hitch bolts were cut down for clearance.

    I believe Omelet did it. His was worn, deflated, and had a modded hitch like you said.

    That makes sense then if it was deflated
