The only issue would be the spinning on the rim if wet ie: in snow, fording, et cet., feedback I have received from folks that have used both. However, still the perfect compromise to a true bead lock wheel.. These are the wheels I will be sourcing soon enough...
No. Narrower tires outperform wide tires at the same PSI as far as foot print goes. Ie A 285/85r17 will have a smaller contact patch at 15 PSI than your 255/85r17 would at 15PSI.
It's more difficult to take it off i have it on my FJ CRUISER, i bought a set of new tires on of them have an issue so when i went back to the agency to replace it, believe me they suffer a lot to take it out and the tire was destroyed totally I don't recommend those wheels with bead grib cuz if for any reason u need to take the tire off the tire will be destroyed
@427saleh I ended up getting a set for my FJ Cruiser as well. Hoping for the best. I have a set of 5, using a tire I've run completely trouble free in the past. They didn't having any issues getting them to bead up anyway.
