damn those both look good. That mean I can run about a 27.5, or so, and be okay. I'm at a 2/4, but I can go 3/5 no problem. Thanks guys.

The problem I have been running into, is if I run a 29 tall tire, I can't find the right combo for the front and rear to be the same height, and have the width in back I want. If I go with a Nitto 555 then it leaves me more options. If I go with the Nitto 555 295/45/18 front and 555r 305/45/18, then it should get me in the right spot.
