    Biggest tire on the factory 17" Steelies

    I run the 255/85 MT Baja Boss on my Grenadier on the stock steelies and do not use the Leitner bracket. I simply installed 3/8" worth of spacers under the top left stud holding the wheel to the OEM tire carrier and 3/16" of spacers under the lower stud. This allows the tire to easily clear the...

    Mickey Thompson Baja Boss AT in 255/85R17 on the stock suspension. There is no rub of any kind so far but I have not yet flexed it to the bump stops with these tires.

    Thanks for the recommendation. Would it be possible for you to please post a picture of what your spare looks like from behind the vehicle as mounted on the Leitner relocation bracket? I just want to make sure it doesn’t completely dominate the back end of the vehicle aesthetically wise. In...

    Biggest tire on the factory 17" Steelies

    You can also go with a Mickey Thomson Baja Boss 255/85r17. They measure 34.6" tall which is actually slightly taller than most "35 inch" tires. Sectional width at street pressure is 9.8 inches but when aired down for off road use it has the same contact area as the typical 35x12.50r17 tire...

    What did you do with your Grenadier today?

    I have the same sized lift and tires & keep hearing people say there could be issues with the driveshaft and cv joints with this set up. How did you do out there, any issues?

    What did you do with your Grenadier today?

    Went to Gooderham Trail, Ontario with a local 4x4 team (Steam Overlanding) yesterday. It was my first time off-roading with the Grenadier, and the 2.5" Eibach springs and 35" MT Baja Boss tires made it a breeze.

    I have the same tires. Those are Mickey Thompson Baja Boss A/T in a 255/85/17 which is basically 34"x10". Keep in mind that most 35" tires actually measure 34.5"

    What did you do with your Grenadier today?

    Do you think the tires would clear the wheel well without the 2.5" lift? I'm wondering if they're less likely to rub given the narrow width.

    Some discussion regarding this size here as well. It seems they do rub, but do so minimally. And they may or may not clear the ladder on any given rig. https://www.theineosforum.com/threads/pizza-cutters.12414312/page-2

    That sounds exactly like a 255/85R17 Baja Boss AT. Someone here runs those, maybe they can comment on fit without lift or door mount. 255/80R17 does fit, seen by several here.

    4,700 miles, rotated at 2,100 still really quiet and wearing evenly. Kinda wishing I would have bought the Mickey Thompson Baja Boss in a 255/85/17, 34.5" tall I think they would've fit on stock suspension. Maybe next tire set I'll try em.

    Like many others I was disappointed in the stock aux. lights in the grill of my Grenadier. I'm sure there were various regulations that limited what could legally be mounted there from the factory, but the light output is just pointless. I don't think I would ever use them, especially with the...

    Yes. The 255/85r17 tire size is currently only offered by Mickey Thompson. There are lots of 255/80R17 on the market. It’s a very tall tire for the spec…I’ll put a tape measure on it today and post the actually height.
