Re: Newest Model That Will Fit

Will that being 2" longer cause any problems with clearance, performance or drive-ability ?

Welcome to TGO, Steven.

Wider. No. Many of your questions will be answered in the link below:

BTW, since there aren't many questions that haven't been asked and answered on TGO, a search is generally a good idea.
