One other question - it seems from my research all the H3s come with 16x7.5 rims. So putting 33 inch 315x75R16 worked out well it seems? Other then maybe a calibration issue with the speedo - no problems say with the traction control on my automatic?



i have an automatic also , the speedo is off by 2 mph at 70 mph checked by a couple guys here with GPS units . most tire manufacturers will recomend a 8 inch rim . Do not worry about the 7.5 width we have about a dozen or more of us running the 35's on stock wheels now. nobody has busted a bead yet and from our pix you can see we have tested them pretty well

you will go thru brakes a little faster , but not much and them pads are cheap . for what we get in offroad traction and clearance it is well worth it hope this helps with your decision , Neo
