    Old tires were stock size, 265/70/16. Just picked up some 33x12.50x15 KM2s and installed them today on steel 15x8 'Type B' wheels from Wheeler's Off Road.
    Already took it for a spin in the mud tonight and they are great! I really haven't seen a noticeable difference in power. My truck has stock 4:30 gears and the 2.7L

    Some comparison pictures -

    The only rubbing was on the fenders which we trimmed. Backspacing is 4".

    Forgot to mention the 3" OME suspension lift.

    Nice that's good to know. My rims are 4.5 bs and -12mm offset I have no rubbing but that is with the body lift and Coilovers. I want to take the body lift off. Your truck looks great with the black rims.

    I don't really see any power difference on the street. The low hum of the road noise is next to nothing at 30+/- mph and I don't even notice it at higher speeds.

    Loving these things!! :D
