Craig ... I do, sort of. 1/ is on a Syncro Westy though. Identical numbers to your example. I've gotten very slight rub going into driveways with the wheels turned pretty sharply, and in turning/transition situations offroad. I lifted the van with different shocks/springs so I no longer get the rub. I'm "suspicious" you'll get some rubbing on the 2wd with your #1 example. You probably know this but your #1 example is a diameter of 28.4". bob On Sun, Jan 17, 2010 at 12:49 PM, Craig Morton <rangermorton1972@yahoo.com>wrote: > We are searching for a tire/wheel combination that will yield a tall > diameter without any grinding or cutting.
