Hi all, I'm looking to get a set of new tires for the Winter and possibly a second pair eventually for the Summer.
I'm pretty set on General Grabbers AT2's for winter but I'm curious about sizing. I've got 17" OEM XT wheels but users that run these tires have 215/65R/16 or 215/70R/16 but I fear that second size would have rubbing and CV boot issues.
All my questions I'm fairly certain I know the answers to from lurking around but my questions are:
1) Would I need to buy a set of 16" wheels to run either of those sizes?
2) Just for my own personal enrichment, would I need different wheels to fit 225 vs 215 tires?
3) Lifting my FXT with spacers and springs will NOT allow me to fit larger tires any better, correct?
4) Where can I find 16" steelies that will fit 215/65R/16???!
