I get 32.7" tall & 102.7 circumference, FWIW... I might do 285/70-17s over 265s, also. You can drop psi a pinch, too. On the otherhand, it's more wind resistance, and dad pulled a few wide tire trucks out of the snow w his IH Scout 144 cube 4 banger. His skinny tires bit down through the snow to grab traction underneath.

The 285/70/17 seems to be the Goldilocks size, not too big, not too small. Just right.

I tightened my steering wheel. Installed and programmed heated steering wheel in February but evidently I just hand tightened the bolt securing the wheel. It was working loose and scaring the heck outta me so I pulled the airbag and used my 1/4” impact this time


Back on the road and all is well.

Washed.

Airbags set at 5 psi here. So far I’ve driven with them at 20 psi, 10 psi
, 5 psi and 0 psi. 0 feels stock. I notice nothing different even on dips in the road. 20 felt a little stiff, but just like a really stiff shock. I think I’m going to stick with 10 unloaded. I do like the ride better so far. Won’t be using them to tow till the summer.

Also, adding air obviously affects rake too. At 20 the rear was noticeably higher.
