The 80 will clear some 35s with 2.5-3 inches of lift. Mine has the 2.5" OME lift/285/75/16 and its perfect. I don't rock crawl and it still goes wherever I point it. For exploratory driving I think its a perfect combination of performance and aesthetics. :safari-rig:
Hate to dig up an old thread, but I ran across it on a google search. What springs does The Dude have? I just ordered the OME 850 863 heavies and I have 285s. Your cruiser sits really nice.
