Thanks! Like I said, the contact patch is under the fender, but the sidewall is out (including the rim guard) 7/16".

I do not have PS2's, but many guys on here do, as well as many guys run BFG KDW2's in a 295 with no major issues.

I am running the same tires as a C6 with Z51, in fact, they were take-offs from a C6 that CCW hooked me up with... more detail is below in my signature.

Thanks Chuck, CCW says the ps2 are on back order until late in December. They have the 305's in Nitto Invo available. They have a different tread pattern look but I like it.

With winter here I have some time to decide. Thanks, Mark

Nitto Invo's are great except they are overpieces for 345/25/20
They took advantage of me needing that size
Other sizes are at great price

You're welcome !!

I am considering the Nitto's next time around however. I hear they are just a bit narrower than the PS2's and a little better traction in dry weather. The PS2's will break loose fairly easy on a cold road in third gear
