x1 shouldn't rub

like BBLS1 said go with the 275/55/17 it would look nice

275/60's should fit just fine one your truck. They'll look awesome with their wider sidewalls too. They're right at 29.9" so it'll fill up the fenderwell gaps but still shouldn't rub.

I ran a 255/60/17. That is a lot of tire. It is wide, good sidewall, and fills up the wheelwells. I had a 3/5 drop. No rubbing issues. I was running Pirelli Scorpions. When I switched to the dunlop 8000s(or was it 5000s), they were slightly taller but the same width. I would go 255/60/17.
