Really? Man that's a big tire for stock. Sweet
So that won't rub or stick out side fender flare?
Thanks that's got me really wanting to get tires now.

As far as I know on a stock 4wd that will fit. I haven't done it myself though. There's a sticky all about tire sizes.

If you are going to get bigger tires (34-35"), you need to think about re-gearing. That's a minimum of $800, possibly closer to $1K. Otherwise you run the risk of putting a lot of stress on the transmission.
