    Here is a 3"/2" Readylift with 265/70 17 Cooper ST Maxx tires.

    I had the ECGS bushing installed and am pretty pleased.

    May jump up to 275/70 17's in a few months to fill out the wheel wells a bit more.

    With a 3" lift? Absolutely you can run 275/70 17. May have to do a little trimming or a cab mount chop but sure, it can be done.

    It rides great to me. Can't tell any difference. I just drive around town mostly and maybe a highway trip here and there.

    Here’s how she sits... i can only get so erect fuhhh! SCS Ray 10 16x8 on Toyo Open Country RT 315/75/16

    The comparison between before and after wheel size on the truck is crazy.. lots of cutting and trimming in the fenderwell and the body mount chop was taken back to the body mount bushing. No rubs at full lock when on the street .. testing some trails next weekend!

    I looked on line for hours to find this color with the right model '17 and exact options I wanted!
    Drove 130 miles to a dealer in Va. Love this blue!

    FWIW this was after a scuffle with a Dodge Ram 2500.
    With all it's faults it can definitely take a hit and keep you safe.

    This one is approaching 12k in damage and only has 3k miles on it. Now I cant bitch about my howling rear end and rattles on a new truck. I'll drive it with it's worthless platinum warranty till I can get out from under it in 3 years. I'm not the first and I wont be the last to run through bad luck.

    Yes, I know. But I have read enough threads about actually getting it in a timely manner and frequent damage in shipping.

    I rather pay $100 for proper fit and quality. Just me

    Fair enough. Personal experience, mine came quickly and fits well. From what I've read, Cali raised buys in bulk from the same supplier, but they just have them in stock and mark them up
