295/70/R17 Nitto Terra Grapplers

I posted in the tire/wheel section and got a few replies about this topic, but when I first joined these forums I saw a couple guys were running these tires on stock rims and not having any issues with them.

So since more people view these forums I wanted to ask if you have any experience with these tires, on stock rims, 2005 STX 4X4 Scab....will they rub or will they clear without the leveling kit?

Anybody have an answer? I'm interested to know too.
I know that 285/70's will fit. I don't know about the 295s

I been thinking about running the same tires. They should fit becuase superlift recommendations a 33 x 12.50" tire on 17 x 8" wheel with 5" backspacing. thats with a 2.5 leveling kit tho. I inputed the size in a online calculator and They come out to 33x11.61x17. It would be nice to see a truck with nittos TGs on tho.

I have seen a regular cab 2005 F-150 on these forums with the 295's on. I believe the truck didn't have the 2.5" kit and that he had posted they cleared. I'll keep searching and see what I can find.
