What is the biggest tire/wheel combo I can stuff under fenders at stock height and possibly with 3" body lift

Thanks

depends on if your willing to trim any crank the bars or stuff like that. for sure a 285 on about any wheel and i have heard of 305s and 315s fitting on stock wheels. for example i have between 7-8" of lift on my halfton and i run 36x14.5 tires with no rub anywhere but i do have quit a bit of cutting done

i think 287/75/16 on stock rims looks good. I have 295/75 now and don't like them. they are too wide for the rims.

I am not opposed to different wheels. I just want a beefier look and don't see a suspension lift anytime soon.

I guess the question that I really have is can I fit 33's on my 2500HD 4x4 without any issues?

for a 3/4 ton, you can fit 305 on stock rims. with a b/l, you could probably fit 35's.

I went with 285/75/16s Nitto Terra grapplers and they rub a little bit on a 16x8 wheel.

ive got an 02 2500hd 2wd and i have 305/70/16 goodyear wrangler mtrs on it, all i did was crank up the torsion bars, so id say a good bet with a 3'' body lift would be 315/75/16 (35's)

305 seems to be it, now there is a set of brothers on gmfullsize.com that run 35's, with cranked keys.

Seriously? Know their names, I thought it took 6in to fit 35's?

Here is mine before doing the straight axle. This is with cranked keys and alittle trimming in the back of the wheel well. I was running 36x14.5-16.5 radial tsl's. If i would have put on a bodylift, it would of cleared these with no trimming.
