Congrats!!! Be sure to keep us updated as it works it's way through the process.
At first, the manual/4.46 & 30" tires seems like it is geared too deeply.
Once you learn that the 2.3 LOVES to rev, you'll get used to stretching the gear shifts out.
I jumped from the factory 30's to 35's and...
Having read thru all the responses thus far, the above is certainly one of the best thus far.
So , just for playing around, go to this site
( https://tiresize.com/wheel-offset-calculator/ ) and start playing around with the inputs, amount of offset, tire widths etc etc .
It will give you a...
I recognized the name while at an auction. Picked up probably their largest duffle and a full size garment bag for about $20. They were piled in with a bunch of otherwise junk stuff, sold as a lot .
Looked up the going rate for those pieces and thought the same as you... "Holy (fudge)" !
Their...
Similar story ... the bridgestones that came from the factory on my Base (16" , unsure of the exact tire model ) have been great year 'rounders. They stick in the rain, do OK in the snow ... the gravel roads I get on, all tires end up throwing stones, so I don't know what to tell you about that...

Somehow they forgot what works ... like the rattle free, frameless side windows.

Looks GREAT by the way!!!

But I also like the way the Titanium Metjods match the MIC hard top.
That's shocking to read.
Which Baja Bosses?
From everything I've read, the AT'S have been getting stellar reviews EVERYWHERE, professional testers and average Joe's alike.
Same guy has a comparo between mickey t , nokian and several other AT's last winter.
Mickey T''s were an excellent tire.
I'm a bit disappointed he didn't run the same group through this test from winters test.
edit: LOL, what this guy said ^^^^^ long hoses get the job done!
---------------------------------------
I just use a large shop vac and a few hoses linked together. Maybe 10/15 ft worth.
The long hose has been the greatest benefit. I can leave the vac on one side of the car, leave the hose...
Sorry no real world experience with that exact set up or use case.
But since there are only a few replies at the moment ... you get
My thoughts, LOL
You are jumping from 32.1" to 33.2" , so only 1/2" larger from the center point. Not a huge jump.
I strongly suspect you'll clear without...
I was fortunate to visit Germany a few years back. My father-in-law was born in Berlin, 1940 and came here in his college years.
Spent time in Munich, Hanover, Berlin, visiting a lot of different sights.
Had the best beer ever in the Bavaria region! Lol!
We had a rental Mercedes diesel wagon...

Fantastic scenery.
Thanks for sharing!
Another line in there about "living the northwest dream" ... haven't been there yet, have always wanted to visit though.
Fairly certain I'd love it.
