Picked her up on Thursday! Getting a free tire upgrade because I work for Goodyear. Anybody rocking 285/70r17's on their stock steelies?

This thing loves the open ocean air.

I really love the look of your wheels and tires! I went with 33" pizza cutters on the stock steelies. Otherwise, a very similar build, but I think I like your rims better.

I'll have to take a snapshot in front of Marshall Point lighthouse this weekend for comparison!

Have been following your build since you’re one of the few with 255/80/17 installed. Do you happen to have any more photos of those tires installed before removing the fender flares?

question for EG owners, what color is the MGV? Is it the same black and gray with blue stitching or is it something else? my build lists black but I can't seem to find a picture?

Are those load E rated tires? if so how is the ride? Also they didn't rub with no lift correct?

E-rated Cooper 255/80-R17, 33.1" tall vs 31.5" stock tires.
Ride is great. No rub at all with no lift. Dealer swapped out before I picked it up. I did add a 1" level kit a few weeks later but didn't need it for clearance. Still have crash bars too.

They are skinny, though, which is why I deleted the fender flares. This is what it looked like the day it was delivered...

This is what they looked like with fender flares, pre- 1" level kit, with crash bars intact. Plenty of clearance and smooth ride. Great in snow.

Mine is either in the rail yard in Illinois or waiting for a truck in central Texas. My plans are 3.5 inch lift, Procomp 17x9 69 powder coated white, general grabber x3 35x12.5r17, go rhino D1 side steps. From there I’m not sure what my next move will be. Probably audio upgrade
