Default new tires
Its up between 285s and 315s. Will 315s rub with my 2 in leveling kit? I am going with the toyo open country m/t. And also do 315s have too much tire to rim ratio? Any one got pics of 315s on just 2 inch leveling kit?

they will rub a little but not too bad, and i bet they'd look sweet with 20s, what size of rim you got? i have a leveling kit on mine and run 305/55/20, i think it looks good?

You should be fine with 315's. Might have to trim the front of the bumper a bit...

i bet a lot depends on the condition of your front springs and shocks, but you should be just fine
