well i just bought stock 08 polished wheels and now i wanna get tires. about a 35 or a 315-70-17 or a 305-70-17. im going to do a leveling kit. i have 315-70-17 now and they rub a little bit. i really dont want any rubbin. gonna get an all terrain tire. thinkin about bfg at ko's or the nitto terra graplers. i work at a tire store and i get a hell of a discount so money isnt a real big issue. any suggestions?

i think most anything you get on the stockers over 285s are gonna rub. mine rub a little before full lock. if you want the bigger tires you'll need different wheels. of course there are some that are going to say that theirs doesn't rub at all....my .02

Mine rub just slightly on the driver control arms at full lock. You cant tell inside the truck when it does it, you can just see the clean spot on the arm.

here's a old picture for reference..

I have had my truck in some nasty twisty spots and I have never rubbed the fender or the bumper. It probably wouldnt rub the control arm if you bought an adjustable trac bar.
