I rolled my fenders today. Maybe even did a slight pull. Tough to tell but it was my first time. With the ride height set it looks like there's some room in there. No rubbing on the drive home. Would a 10mm spacer be about the same size as a 285? I have a set laying around.

Tire / Section Width / Tread width 285 ...........11.4..............10.7 275............10.9..............10.2 --------------------------------------- Difference .5 .5 Emilime so approx 5mm on each side of the wheel would be a better representation of adding a 285? I have some 5mm spacers coming. Last edited by Yotaismygame; 01-18-2021 at 10:30 AM.. |

Correct. Tire widths are in metric and go in 10mm increments. A 285 is 10mm wider than a 275, divide that in half and you get a 5 mm increase on the inside, and a 5mm increase on the outside. So, in theory, going from a 275 to a 285, and adding a 5mm spacer, will push the tire out a total of 10mm while keeping the inner edge the same as with the 275 and no spacer. Again, this is theoretical as not all tire brands and models are the same. Some run narrow, some wide...some have rolled shoulders, some have more squared shoulders...
