new tires

I am looking for some new tires very soon. I have a 2.5 in leveling kit and the rims are the factory 17x7.5(I believe). I am looking for a 35 tire. the procomp extreme mud terrain is really cathcing my eye. what should I go with the 305/65 or the 315/70?

If you have a 4x4, you can fit either. A 315/70-17 is basically a 35x12.50-17 and the 305/65-17 is basically a 33x12.50-17 tire.

cool, yeah I forgot to mention it was a 4x4. so the 315 is a 35? will I have any issues with putting a 35 on the stock rim?

Nope those tires will fit fine. You will most likely have rubbing issues but nothing too major.

Right, the 35's will slightly rub the control arms at full steering lock.
