Should be 29.1 to 29.3 depending on Tread design. 285 50 18 are about the same.

My 255/55 18's are on some American Racing Torq-Thrust rims. These tires are almost identical to factory as far as height. They will not leave a gap between the fenderwell with a 4/6 drop like mine.

Silvette 02, Do you have any pictures of those rims on your truck that I could take a look at?

I'd like to see a pic of that 4/6 drop, I am thinking of dropping my truck 3/5... it's already lower than a 4x4 since it's a 2WD version.

Well, I'll take some pictures tomorrow after I put my headers on. If you'll tell me how to put them on here, I'll be more than happy to.

Alright, have to wait until tomorrow for pictures. My truck hates me, for more info on that, go to the Truck Lounge and read my post "Headers are a b!tch". Its been a long day.
