    Just got a 23’ dclb silver sr5 2 weeks ago
    Looking to see if anyone is running the wheels specs above and if so what tire? I’m liking the pizza cutter look with the 255/80r17 just don’t know if I’ll have issues with that size. Anyone running them with that wheel? Any rubbing or trimming? I do plan to do a 2in level if that helps with my results. Thanks in advance.

    @Motox614 if you look at what factory size is compared to the size you are proposing. This might give you an idea of size difference. You would be going 2.5 inches taller.

    You may want to consider the 235/80R17 size as well.

    Personally I like to always run a wheel that’s at least 2” narrower than the tire section.
