Welcome to the site UNCFX4... Anywhere that they sell Toyo tires... This is the size copied from the Toyo site: LT285/75R17 121P E/10 (34X11.50R17) Product code: 360430 Approved Rim Width Range (inch)7.5-8.0-9.5 Overall Diameter (inch)34.1 Overall Width (inch)11.6 Tread Depth (1/32")19. Here's what they look like...









No rubbing and no trimming with a 2" leveling kit...

It will work, but has to be something real close to OE Rim specs. Something like a 8'' wide with around 5.5'' BS.

I like the look of the 33's. I'll be ordering the Pro Comp Xtreme AT's shortly. The 35's look good but some of them look stuffed in there too much, where the 33 gives you no rubbing and a little extra wheel well space. IMO

IMO, the 35s often look stuffed, and a little too big, however, the 33s are a tad undersized. Given the additional loss of power and mileage with the 35s, I'd say 33s. I put them on my truck (285/70-17) and even they are a great improvement over the stock 255s.

I say if you can get 34s (or metric equivalent) in your chosen tire, do that. That's a perfect compromise.

33's look so much more proportional than 35's w/ just a level kit. Plus when you bump up to 35's now you're looking at re-gearing, having your speedo way off...etc. I'd stick w/ 33's. I think they look perfect w/ just a level kit.
