Funny you say that because everyone who knows me has been through my computer and bitches due to the lack of real **** on my computer. So they all say my true **** is truck stuff because my history on Firefox is littered with truck websites and links and 99% of the pictures in My Documents are truck related. So...they call it my truck ****.

I used to run 285/75-16's on the stock wheel without touching the keys and I had no rubbing issues at all. That was a 33" tall tire, can't remember how wide.
Here's what it used to look like:

Looks good Budhayes......killer! I've decided to run the OEM 17inch 5 Star wheels, but I had them stripped and polished. And I'm going to run either the Bridgestone Deuler AT Revo's in a 285/70 R17 or the Nitto Terra Grappler in the same size.

The Terra Grapplers in the LT285/70R17 size are 10 ply tires so keep that in mind because on a little 1/2 ton truck they'll be really stiff. If you can fit the 285/70R17 without any trimming, run the LT295/70R17 which is 33.19" tall compared to the 32.76" 285...however, the 295 is an 8 ply so they'll be quite a bit softer and less expensive even though physically larger in size. Rim range of 8-9.5" so you're still in the clear.
