Will 305/70/16s fit under a stock truck? I found some BFG TA KOs for 200.00 2 are about half used the other two have more tread than that. Thinking about offering 175.00 What do you guys think?

 

probably. not a height issue and if you have OEM rims it should work. I know that Toyo MT315's don't fit well with OEM rims and a lvl kit.

 

They should. 285s fit perfectly on stock wheels. Depending on tire manufacturer 305s are 3/4"-2" wider than 285s. You could possibly get some control arm rub but probably not.

 

my 305's rubbed on tight turns but doesn't hurt anything no abuse to the truck or tires

 

Thanks guys. Does it sound like good deal to you?

 

with the price of tires heck yeah thats the cost of what a new one?

 

I ran BFG AT 295's for a couple of months before I added the leveler kit. They fit fine.

Compare their specs to the tires you are considering. If they are the same or smaller, not a problem.

According to the numbers listed in the tire rack site:
They will likely rub at full lock on the suspension and under shock compression, they may rub the front inner fenders between the tire and the passenger doors. My $.02

 

305's will 'fit' on a city truck, don't try to go playing very hard in the dirt or mtns though without leveling. 305's rubbed a tiny bit offroad with a 2" spacer on my 96.

 

I definitely have some rub on my 01 with 295's.

You will probably be ok. If not, get some new springs: Custom Suspension

Or a spacer from Hell Bent Steel: HBS_HOME

Or Top Gun Customs: Top Gun Customz - Lift Kit and Custom Suspension System Specialists

 

oh yeah, if you get spacers, definitely get the steel. I had the Hell Bent on my 96, they were nice and ridiculously hurky! I've heard too many bad things about the 'plastic' polyeurethane or whatever spacers breaking.
