Day 22 with the new Hummer. Just purchased 5 LT 295/75/16 Nitto Terra Grapplers on Friday. Will be delivered this week and then off to mount them. Some members noted that with the bigger tires they had isses with the wiper rubbing the spare tire. Since these are a bit taller/wider than 285's offered in the Advent. Pkg., has anyone needed spacers to mount the spare tire? Just want to want to get whatever I need now while they are being delivered. Any suggestions are appreciated. Thanks.

When you put them on please post some pics. I am interested in the same size BFG's and would love to see how they look.

Have lots of pics, but keep on getting an error when trying to upload. Apparently, my files are too big. Any idea how to reduce the file size to post? If not, I can try to retake the pictures on the weekend.

You shouldn't need washers. I recently put on 315/75/R16's without needing anything for the spare.

Not bad. Thought they were a good compromise between on and off road. Had them in the mud last week and they performed well. Will see how the handle the snow next.

They actually look better than the pictures show. The lugs are deep and wide.

BTW nice avatar!
