i got 315 70 17's on my 05 with the stock rims and no leveling kit and i dont have no problems. my dads truck has a leveling kit with the same size tire and it only rubs at full lock either way.

a little more labor intensive too. gotta mount the new lover control arm brackets on the frame, cut the old ones off. and as im slowly figurin out, 16 year old bolts like to stay right where they're at. a combination of torches, cuttin wheels, air chisels, hammers n punches will get em out tho haha
idk how many times i've walked into the arms on the lift but my head is startin to hurt....
