I run 285/75-R16 on mine with no suspension mods and they fit fine with no rub. 305's will fit with a leveling kit and no rub or some rub with no leveling kit.

With the right backspacing I have heard of guys running 35x12.50s. I don't know what that backspacing is though.

285 = 33's they are pretty much same size and thats what i am runnin on my truck ... had a set of 35's in the shop and threw them on and rubed bad so ditched them and are using them on the prerunner and went to 33's for the truck ... also does any one else think that the stock size tires look really small on our trucks ..
