Tire Suggestion

Just picked up set of MB Gunner 6 wheels 17x8. I have a 07 Supercrew 4x4 with 3.55 gears. Was thinking about getting the bridgestone dueler revos or BFG 285/70-17. What is the biggest I can go without rubbing? Thanks

285/70-17 (33x11.50), 295/70-17 (34x12.00) or 305/65-17 (33x12.50). All of those sizes may not be available in the tires you listed.

If your truck is leveled you could run 315x70's like I did, but I wouldn't do it with 3.55 gear's. Stock height stick to 33 inch tires.

285x65x18 (33") stock height, 305x65x18 (34") leveled. BFG makes these sizes in an all-terrain. Check Bridgestone,Nitto and Toyo's sites for their sizes.
