295/70/17 Nitto pics

Anyone have any pcitures of the Nitto 295/70/17 Terra Grappler installed on a 4x4 Quad Cab shortbed?

Should be enough to drop my RPM's a little on the highway commute (75-80mph every day). I was thinking about 315/70/17's, but from what I'm seeing now, they might be a little much with the 48RE and 3.73 gears.

Your thoughts??

Thanks,
-Banning.

I have the same questions. I really like the Terra Grapplers in 315/70-17 but not sure how the 3.73's will handle them. Will the 315's fit on a stock-height 3500 4x4?

Yes. I had 315's on H2's with no lift at all until i put my 2" spacers in. I had zero rubbing.

From what I've read 315's on stock wheels will rub on the control arms (trailing arms?) of an unlifted truck but not on H2 wheels cuz they're spaced about an inch farther out than the stockers.

I haven't evem made my first payment yet
and just went for 285's for now...

Yeah i figured the H2's were why mine dont touch the control arms which is one of the reasons i wanted them over the stock ones.

I only made 2 payments.

I've got a set of BFG 315/70R17s on stock Dodge alloys and they rub the control arms at full lock. I am toying with the idea of getting a 2" leveling kit for the front, and maybe 1 1/2" blocks for the rear to keep it level when towing.

Look at my pics. I had 295-70-17 Nittos on for a while. They do rub but it is because of the rims having such a offset. I have worn them out and put 285-70-17 BFG All Terains on and they dont rub at all. I wasent real happy with the way they wore. I wont be buying anouther set.
