    ok, so I just bought the 3" Boss lift. I need to buy rims and tires now, but I would like to get help from you guys. I am stationed overseas and I should be receiving my truck soon. I need to make sure I get the correct rim and tire size so I don't have to pay for return shipment. So, what is the lug pattern for the '16 and what backs pacing do I need? I would like to get a 17" rim with the biggest tire I can get with out it rubbing. So what size tire can I get? I know I have seen a lot about 285/75/17. I don't mean to post repeat threads, if this is one, I just need to make sure to get it exactly right. I do appreciate any help. Please post the setup you are running and if you have any rubbing.

    Same pattern as 2005-2015. Any size worth getting will require trimming of some sort or at least it did on the 2015s, but depending on your model may get lucky up front. I have a 3'' lift with 285/70r17 and had to cab chop mount and trim a shit ton front and back. 275's usually you can get away with without trimming. Since the bolt pattern and wheel well is similar along with cab mount I would search previous threads with same topic. I think guys lifting 16s are getting away without trimming up front (plastic) but I know Toytec had to do a cab chop to stuff their tires which are 35s.
