yeah they will fit no problem, alot of people have been having alot of luck with mastercraft courser c/t's, getting good wear and good traction and there about 160 a tire IIRC

I am currently wearing out the courser at's on my truck, 315 70 17 on h2 rims, 30 thousand miles and almost gone, and they did not do well as far as qstayin together, chunks missing in spots on all 4 tires. 99% street use, zero **** crawlin, the off roads I hit are a greasy mud. great for the first 15 thou, then they got all squated out from weight. if you ar elookin for cheap, you found em, looking for service life, look elsewhare. 33s on stock no problem, check out tireseasy.com for prices, thats where I got the mastercrafts from, cheapest I could find.

i am running hankook and they suck....i use to sell tires, and you get what you pay for. i wouldn't recomend a "mud tire" if you want something to last. my wife insited on mud tires cause "they just look so cool", and, well, she isn't real happy that i am gonna need a new set soon. buddy of mine just bought a set of dick cepeck(?) tires and they are pretty sweet.
