Captain Bone had this set up. I considered this for awhile too but once I saw Captain Bone's pics (sorry Anthony, but the 19s are ), I decided against it. Just too much rubber, but of course that is a personal choice.

Check this thread for Captain Bone's pics. Of course, he is not running this setup any more.

I'd love to correct you but you are already correct. Staggered 8.5/9.5 running 245/40, 275/35.

That's because those are now MY wheels! (Thanks Captain Bone!)
And yes, that width and offset fit perfectly with the size tires listed, although I have the Goodyears in that size now.
