If seen a few with 245 and tubs
Just not sure if that running factory spring location or not
I knew yours where big Pete but you not exactly running a bolt in modified rear end
Would love some 275 as they are big enough to look tuff and cheap enough being one of the main stream sizes

I just don't want to put a tonn of time and effort just to go 235 or 245

For what its worth. .. I have mini tubbed the inners  back to flush with the chassis rails and the outer guards have rolled lips.. I have just ordered 18"x9" rear rims with a backspace of 6.25" diff is to hr width I think... should be good for about a 255/40R18..

My daily FC sedan  has 245 50 14's tucked under the rear end on 14x8 steelies.  No rubbing, inner guards 'stretched' with a big hammer, outer guards have had a small pump, it is what i would consider very low for stock spring setup. Tyres are tucked under guards.
