    I have looked up a little on what everyone is running for wheel size and tire size I was just curious about a set up I am thinking about. I want to run 275/65/18 that are on 9 inch wide rims. I have done the tire calculator and it stands taller and wider then the stock I have now. It should clear the wheel wells but because of the added mm to the out side of the rim because of back spacing. Am I going to rub too much to make it worth it? Or should I step them down to 17s and run what everyone else is running. Thanks!

    This is what it is looking like to me. I think it will be fine.

    I ran 275/65 Toyo Mud Tires stock on a 2016 SR Acess Cab. It did rub but not bad. You could not take it off road though.

    Personally I thought the 275/65 18's looked goofy on the truck.

    17" look better to me but everyone likes different things.

    For me it was too much wheel and not enough rubber.

    Yeah I see what you mean. Looks like the 20s people have. The 17s look a lot better.
