Hi All
This has been bugging for quite a while. I have a 3" OME lift with stock rims & 31x10.5 BFG AT's. We make a few trips a year to Tahoe and Yosemite with the wife and kids.
I've done some wheeling with the club in deep snow in Humboldt but when I read the road advisory for the mountain areas down here they say that chains may be required for 4x4's also.
My problem is with the 31's on stock rims I would never get chains to clear my leaf springs, there is a big storm coming and we are leaving for Tahoe Friday.
So do I?
A) Go out in a panic and find some AR767's with 4" backspacing (I think) so I can clear some chains.
B) Get some chains that I'll never be able to use because of the clearance problem just in case they are checking.
Or C) Forgetaboutit Because I've got a rear locker and BFG AT's and won’t have any problems?
