    Seeing the third gen section forced me to get a Ford...
    Colt...LUCKY...lol. mine ran $200. that coupled with needing to trim some inner fender and beat back that pinch weld, should have no rubbing w/ the 315/70/17. only rub w/ different circumstances on the fender pinchwelds right now

    I was thinking of running 305/65/17 which is still a 33" but 12" wide...

    its about a 1/4" smaller in diameter and about an inch wider

    I'm just not sure if they will fit without a cab mount chop... PRS is running them without the chop so I guess they work.

    Hey Mark, after reading thru all the posts on this thread, i was hoping you could clarify for me. what did you finally go with? the 305/65-17s? And if so, how much of a lift? 'cuz that's the exact size i'm thinking of getting but wanted to keep the lift to a minimum. also, do you got any final pics? i followed your pics, but there are like 3 or 4 different trucks on there.
    thanks!

    yes I did... I got 305/65/17 BFG A/T

    I already had a 3" lift (OME 885 w/ 1/2" spacer, Bilstein 5100s, Toytec TSB AAL)... decided to dump that and went with a RCD 4.5" lift kit

    figured I didn't want to chance whether or not the 305s would clear w/ just 3"...

    with 305/65/17 and RCD kit

    yeah but they are a wider tire and thus when you turn you will rub the cab mount or atleast thats what would have happened on my truck prior to the new lift
