Just got of 17’s I’ve been wanting and want to fit as big a tire I can without trimming/tearing up my truck. I’m okay with the valence being deleted/trimmed. Also just interested in y’all’s trucks and how they sit and what they are sitting on. Thanks in advance fellas.

A 265/70 will be close to stock height. With a lil crank should be able to run 285/70.

The RPO option tag has the tire size installed from factory. Is the door jam size and inflation tag still there?

Yeah 245/75r16. I’m running 275/55r20 right now (how I bought her) the wheels I bought came with 285/70/r17. Hopefully going to try a test fit tonight

The 285/70r17 fit fine. 0 rubbing. I think the keys were turned up by previous owner, she squats a tad. Let it be known to anyone in the future that these tires are worn down a bit. I put the ones with the most tread in the front. I’ll be buying brand new ko2s in this size and I’ll let yall know if they still fit without trimming.
