Cool Tire help...

Well I was going to order rims for the truck but that got scrapped for now. I do need new tires on the truck before my trip I am taking in a few weeks. The truck currently has 17 inch wheel from the factory. I would like to put some bigger tires on it without having to mod anything. I also have a leveling kit 2 inches I believe that I will be having installed when I arrive to my destination. Can anyone help?

I think the 265-70-17 is what is on there now. I was hoping to go bigger. I won't have the truck leveled until I get to my destination. Anyway the 285 fit without the level kit? And the truck is 4x2. Thanks.

A285x70x17 would fit great on your 4x2, leveled you may even fit a 295x70x17 on the stock wheels.
