Well, almost...

Technically speaking, this isn't a plus-one setup -- that would be going to a
205/40-17 or the equivalent -- and IMHO, a 225/50 tire on a 7" rim is
marginal at best. Frankly, I'm not surprised you weren't pleased with the
results. I learned a good lesson about putting wide tires on narrow rims
when I ran 215/60-14 BFGs on my 5k's OEM 6x14 wheels ... nice but also not
quite right.
As for my hibernation, I'm rather looking forward to it. I haven't actually
had more than a weekend's vacation in almost three years and in addition to
getting caught up on my chores around the house, there're some trout up near
the Glen Canyon damn that miss me... :^)
