    I've always been a fan of more tire than more wheel. 285/75/16 is a popular option but you may have rubbing issues. If you like the tall skinny look, 255/85/16. A 265/75/16 may look a bit small but would fit the bill too.

    ^I really like the 285/73/16 or 255/85/16 as well. I don't know what brake package you have, but I've got 15" wheels on my rig. It is much cheaper to buy tires for a 15" rim. So, you could also go with a 33" tire in either a 10.5 or 12.5 width. Just make sure to get a 8" width with a 3.75" backspace

    Welcome :wave: and like said before if you have 16 inch wheels go 285/75/16 if you have 17 inch go 285/70/17. You might have to trim just a little bit but that's the most common sizes.

    35s you're going to have to cut and beat a good bit and then they might fit. 285/75/16 is pretty much a 33.

    if your gonna try and go 35's your gonna need a bigger lift 33's will fit with a little trimming so 35's would require alot of work

    With a 3" lift, stick with 33s(285/75/16 or 285/70/17) as suggested above. Trim some plastic, do the CMC mod and call it a day.

    Any issues on rubbing the UCA with 285/75/16? Running stock off road 16x7's. Truck has a 3in procomp spacer kit.
