Tire Shopping

I am in the need of 4 new tires and i am running the stock 265 70 r17 BFs and i would be fine with a new set of them but i was wondering what the biggest tire i could put on that would NOT give me any problems with rubbing AT ALL. the truck is stock no lift. Could i fit 315 or would i have rubbing. Let me know what you think or have experienced. Thank

I just ordered a new set of tires for mine (same size and brand as yours) from discounttiredirect.com. $160 each and free shipping.

285/70/17 or 305/65/17 will fit with no rubbing. 315/70/17 will fit but they may rub on the control arms in tight turns.

My Toyo MT 285/75/17's fit perfectly without any rubbing. This includes flexing the suspension and turning. Good luck on your search.

Have a good one.
