    I can't answer that. Its going to depend on several things. What rims you have, suspension, anything cut and trimmed etc.....

    I have a 2.5in lift in the front and 2in lift in the back I have 255/85/16 km2s in my drive way waiting to be mounted tomorrow. I have 265/75/16 duratracs on right now. Hope they do not rub, but if so I am sure I can trim..
