Yes you can run them without a leveling kit. Like stated above you will have some rubbing at full lock, but it's pretty easy to keep that from being necessary. You will be better off with a leveling kit and upgraded shocks with the 315s. I had a set with a leveling kit, upgrade shocks and steering stabilzer and got 55k out of them. Rotate/balance them every 6k-8k and they will perform well.

thats what i wanted i hear! so the level kit will take care of the control arm rubbing tho? I can get that when some play money comes available, but atleast tire are a must for my inspection in Dec. Thanks under-pressure

No, it would not matter if you lifted the truck 10 inches 35s will still hit the control arms at full lock. Its the backspacing of the stock wheel that causes that. Like others have said though it is not a big deal at all they rub only at full lock but not enough to hurt anything.

I did not put any leveling or lift kit on mine & was very happy with the look & ride with the 315's. I've since switched to 285/70/15 tires on the truck & was shocked how much power the 315's were robbing me.

Yeah, I'm running 315's with no level, but upgraded shocks. I like them, but when I put them on the power difference from stock was evident. My Quad box makes up for it, but I think I'll go down to 285's next time I buy.

Here's a pic of my truck with 315 BFG AT's. Stock wheels and front end level kit. As they've said, the leveling kit isnt necessary, I just think it looks better.
