Im running them(Toyos), have been for 7k miles so far~
Dont know if Nitto makes that size yet, I know they didnt before.(Same company though)
Yes, the touch the control arms at FULL lock, its just a tad, and at full lock when you are doing slow speeds(getting out of a tight parking spot, etc)
No damage to the tires, and only carnage on the control arm is a little paint coming off....
Great tires so far...

I have the Toyo 325 A/T on stock wheels. I have no rubbing at all. Look at my sig and that is what I am running for a suspension.
The 325 (34.9") is D rated, but a 3,300 lb wieght rated. More than most D rated tires out there. I went from the Toyo 285 E rated tire and I feel no difference. I don't tow/hual heavy so the D rated on the 325 is fine for me.
If Nitto does make 325. They are 36/37" tire. They make a 315 that are 35".
Here some pics. Took w/ my cell phone. Quality sucks, but gives you an idea.

I have a Lorenz 5100 Suspension. It consist of 2" HD 6% Coils, end links, adj. Track Bar, mini leafs and Bilsteins on all four corners. There is approx. 1/2" rake. Looks level, but if you measure it's 1/2" higher in the back. The recommended tire size for this suspension system is 35" tire. Sorry to ramble on, but to answer your question, yes. Basically it's w/ a level suspension up front.

the 325s are closer to a 35 than the bfg 315s i think they are 34.9 tall
what series are the new 305s? I know that the 305 bfgs are the same heigth as the bfg 285s only wider because they are a 65 series and not a 70 series.
beind said I hear there is a new 285 "75" not 70 toyo at that is almost 34 tall and not rediculously wide would work good on a stock rim and is supposed to be e rated

the 305's are also a 70 series and they are 33.98" tall and 12.36" wide. the 325's are 35.0" tall and 13.12" wide. both have 16.5" tread depth. the 305's are e rated for 3640 lbs.@65 psi. and the 325's are d rated for 3305 lbs.@50 psi. nitto says the 325's require a min of 8.5" wide rim vs. 8.0" for the 305"s, does anyone know how wide the stock rims are? or if the 325's will be safe on the stock rims (chrome/clad)? thanks again.

Stock wheels are 8" wide. You will be fine w/ wider tire on stock wheels. They will bulge more and possibly wear quicker. There are people out there w/ 37" tires on stock wheels. There are not alot of options for aftermarket wheels out there for our (Dodge) backspacing and offset. Doesn't mean you can't do some modification to make a wheel/tire to fit.
I also believe that if you have to make modifications to make a wheel or tire to fit. Then your lift/suspension is not the right combination. Overtime you will have wear problems.
