Production date on the tires? How much life left? If you happen to know, will these fit a 1G AWD without rolling the fender or using spacers? (I don't mind using spacers, would rather not roll the fenders at this time).
Oh, and do they come with RPF1 centre caps?

I was running 245 before with wider rims and I still had good space that is a smaller offset though so my bet is that you will need spacers, pretty sure factory is 38

I believe the prod date on the tires is the 33rd week of 2007
Correction. I believe three of the pictures show 33rd week of 2007 and one shows the 15th week of 2008

Speaking from experience, 1g>2g.

I run 245's on a 9" rim with a 30 offset. The rears I run just enough camber to slide under the rear fender. The fronts poke out past the fender with my setup, you will need to roll fenders, or have high stiff suspension. I have about 2mm of space from touching the coils in the front, and the rear lower arm in the back. The 1/2 inch smaller rim may compensate for the 10mm larger width than mine, but things will be close. Oh and stock suspension wont clear, but whos stock anymore Hope that helps you 1g guys.
