A 285/50 (31.2" tall) would be the most I'd put on there. The 275/45's are 29.7" for comparison. 265/50 is another size to consider.

I've been running a 275/55/20 since i got it.
I won't mind the 45 series as much once i Lower it. Stock height just looks silly with low profile tires to me.

Eh, not really my style. They do look better than alot of wheel designs out there however. You have alot of bugs on the front of your truck. I guess you do alot of highway driving?
