If you have a 4x4, they should fit. However, I wouldn't put that tire on a daily driver.

Look cool yes it would.........however from personal experience and I am also with wandell.

The LTB are a bias and a very square tire they flat spot very easy (just from sitting over night) and at low speed are a VERY rough ride and dang near impossible to balance unless you do the fill them with sand type balance even then good luck. they are ok at high speeds. With a brand new truck I think they may cause you a lot of premature wear on parts .

They are good offroad and I had them on my hunting truck but for a DD I would find another tire.

If you want 34's, the 305/70-17 (34x12.50) Goodyear MTR would be a much, much better choice.
