05'Max

I'm stock with the front T bars cranked up to even it out. Can I get away with putting 315/70/17's on it or are they too big? 05 crewcab 4X4 Duramax.

Rhall 04-06-2006, 10:19 PM Probably depends a lot on wheel width and backspacing, my 325's in my sig don't rub the bumper or fenders, but when turned lock to lock they rub the upper a arm and anti sway bar -Rob- 05'Max 04-06-2006, 10:57 PM I'm guessing it's something you just put up with because you like the look? I know it's pushing the limit without a lift and I could settle with 295's on 16's but, those 315's on 17's sure would look good...... Cheyenne19 04-06-2006, 11:12 PM They wouldn't fit on mine without touching on level ground. My 305's clear fine, and they're only .6" shorter according to the math. dmaxdog 04-07-2006, 07:58 AM Just put 285/75R16 Dayton AT's on AR 16x8 rims and I had to trim quite a bit for rubbing. I trimmed plastic bumper trim, mud flaps and driver side wheel well in front for tires to clear. I still have some rub on drivers side wheel well in rear when I turn sharp to the left. My torsion bars are cranked up. So don't believe everything you hear when they say they will fit without any problems. I guess every tire is different. Cheyenne19 04-07-2006, 08:47 AM 05 max, I e-mailed smudge122 some pices of mine with clearance and fender well. If you like I can send you them to you. 05'Max 04-07-2006, 12:50 PM I have 285's on stock rims now and no clearence problems at all even when I turn all the way in either direction. Just seems like I have room to expand if I can. Always good to get input from all of you before I spend more money. 05'Max 04-07-2006, 12:56 PM I had an 04' Dmax before I traded it for a new 05' and there really is more room for bigger tires. I'm assuming that is the difference between your truck and mine? Maybe I will just settle for the 295's and leave the 315's alone as I have no intention of lifting... Thanks gmclly05 04-09-2006, 12:33 AM There's gonna be a lot of tire rub with anything close to stock wheels and no lift. I had 315/75/16's on 16x8" wheels on my '01 2500 'burban with RCD 6" lift. I still had to trim the front fenders. Cheyenne19 04-09-2006, 12:45 AM 05max, the 295's should look good. I believe they're taller than 305/16. I thought about running some if i hadn't moved to 17's | ||
