Biggest Tires on stock wheels with 2 inch BDS Leveling kit.

Postby sparky1202 [OP] » Oct 08 2011, 11:14pm

What is the biggest tire I can go with on the stock rims? 285/70's? I bought a BDS 2 inch leveling kit to hold me over for now until I can afford a big lift kit.

i have 285/70/17 on my truck before i install a leveling kit, so you will have no problem with that size tire on stock rims. im installing a leveling kit on my truck and i should be able to fit a 33 no problem but at the end of the day it will all come down to what offset you have if aftermarket rims. they might rub if your tires stick out a good bit, but you will definetly be fine with a 285/70/17 brother.

So are you doing 33's on your stock rims or after market? I would be putting the tires on stock rims. Or would I even be able to get 33's on my stock rims? THanks by the way, I appreciate it man.

2" level = 33" tall x 275 wide without rubbing on stock wheels.

I run 285/70/17 on my truck before I put the 2" leveling kit in on stock rims. this tire is equivalant to a 32.7'" tire. When I change to aftermarket wheel I had a little rubbing in the back of the wheel well on the left side. But was fine with stock rims

Awesome, thanks. Did you notice any difference in fuel mileage when you added the CAI?

i gt a k&n on my 07 and i dont really notice i difference of anything the truck is to heavy to notice a power gain from it and fuel never lasts long under my foot haha. but yeah n stock rims you should be able to fit a 33" tire probably even on aftermarket depending pn the offest again its all going to boil down to that. i have after market rims on my truck but they are the same size as stock. dunno why the guy i bought it off of did that but he did so they are skinny tires. for me i think ill go with a bit shorter tire and wider to make it look a little meaner from all angles but we will see tires are not cheap! haha i would be stopping at a local tire shop when ready to buy tires mount one on a rim and see if that tire size fits its the only way your going to know
