Default Will a 295/70/17 fit ?

On a '05 Crew cab Z-71 without messing with the torsion bars on the front ? I don't mind trimming the air dam but don't want to mess with the torsion

Either the stock 17x7.5


OR I MIGHT try to buy some 17x9

OR

I might try to buy some 18" Wheels and run a 285/60/18

I really want to the Nitto Terra grapplers and they are coming back out with the 295/70/17 for a limited time so I would love to get them in that size, either on the stock wheels or an aftermarket wheel

should be fine but i know if you go with to wide a rim it will rub from what i've been told. mine don't rub at all and i've bounced thit out of it off road. i did however crank my torrsion bars up a hair but that was to level it off not to make the tires fit. if anything i you may have to trim the air dam.
