I'm on my second set of BFG AT (KO)'s and love them. This time around I also bought a set of wider wheels - American Racing "Baja" wheels - 16x8 and they work great. Only problem is some slight rubbing on the inner plastic fender (which I hate anyway - very poor design). I don't have problems with them wandering and they've always performed outstandingly in snow - I go up to Lake Tahoe quite a bit during the winter and have YET to need to add chains!
Dan, they fit the stock wheels with no problem at all, nothing needs to be done to the rotors or drums - they never rubbed against anything on my truck - if you look at my photo's you can see the half worn (1st ) set on it....

We are referring to the fit of the aluminum rims on the earlyier truck. Your photos show the steel wheels and yes if you find a tire ship to do it you can jam up to 315s on the 6.5" steel rims.

The 285's Tire's are going back! I'm going to get the 265's and alloy wheels. Truck should be realy stable after that. They said they would take them back no problem but there having trouble getting the 265's in right now. I also have to find a set of alloys that are not junk. There's only One plus to keeping them and Three negitive's. They sway(bad for pulling), takes more power(bad for pulling-mileage), stops worse, Only good thing is they Look Cool.
