with a 2.5" kit and stock wheels you can run 35/12.50 max. so anything below that size will be fine. some people decide to stick with a 33" tire for gas mileage reasons but 35's sure do look good tucked under there but it will effect your gas mileage

it will only be off by a little. you can get a tuner and have that corrected or just drive next to a friend so you know how much it is off.

I'd save up for some bigger tires with a 2.5" lift. That size in a mud tire are going to look small and skinny. Just my opinion but sometimes you're happier in the end if you wait.

Here is what the 255/75/17 looks like on a leveled truck. Your actual vehicle speed will be 67 when your speedometer reads 65. Your actual vehicle speed will be 65 when your vehicle reads 63.

1988TTOP,

Where are you located? I could sell you those tires you see in the pic, with the OEM wheels, already mounted. I can't use them anymore.
