stock suspension with W tire?
I have 29.5x10.5 on a 12 rim now, the closest clearance issue is at the lower control arm and sidewall, probably around an inch. Is there a differance in the sidewalls when mounted on 12" rims 29.5x10.5s and 29.5x10.5w?

The sidewall bulge is the issue he is having, not rollout.

yeap, and did go measure its 1" at the sidewall. So how close is to close? As tire grows shouldnt it make more room? Going to try to find someone around here that runs that tire and mount it to see what it looks like.

I have 29.5W's on my car now with offset lowers. Clearance is about 3/4" with no rubbing issues.
