Re: 2008 H2 on 38" Open Country MT with Rockstar
Citiboy: You still getting rub at full lock? Or were you able to tweak that out? We've got a very similar setup with Cognito, keys, spacers, etc.
I'm on BFG MTs 37x12.5s now, but am think about the Toyos 38x13.5 for my next set. I'm still trying to get a feel for tread life though...I hear mixed things; some say BFG MTs last longer some say Toyos...

Re: 2008 H2 on 38" Open Country MT with Rockstar
guru, yes, i still have rubbing issues at full lock...i installed 2" wheel spacers but it got worst...i turned the wheels 15 degrees and it would jammed at the rear fender flares so, i removed 'em and now in the classified section http://www.elcovaforums.com/forums/s...ad.php?t=42965. My next attempt is to install 2" body lift and 1" spacers.
I can't say anything about the BFG MT's because i've never used them but the Toyo MT's are awesome well compare to stock BFG's. It's noiser than stock BFG's and i definitely feel the tread when slowing down.

My 04 was rubbing exactly like your was. I'd really like to figure out why some rigs run certain wheel/tire combos great and others don't even come close. Seems like now the majority can run the spacers no problem. I used to think it was the earlier year vehicles, but its not. I just can't believe there is that much variance in the assembly process.
