I think you can run a 305/70/R17 on stock wheels and a leveling kit with very little rubbing. That would be roughly a 33x12x17.

I'm not positive, wandell would know for sure.

The oem wheels are 7.5 inches wide. This is a 1/2 inch narrower than recommended by most manufactures but several members have ran them with no problems.
