    or

    hankook ventus AS RH07

    or any suggestions?

    Thanks

    I am looking into buying a set of 17 inch wheels. How do I determine what size tire work work on the rim? Also my stock rims were 16 inch, but I am assuming 17 inch would be fine? My truck is a 2006 4 door extended bed. I know they don't sell the truck with the 17 inch option. Thanks

    ^^ they do sell the truck in a 17" option. the sports come w/ 17s from the factory. you could easily go 265/70/17
