    I just got done installing 887 coils on 5100s. I didn't measure before and after but it definitely gave me a couple inches at least.

    I'm due for new tires and now I'm wondering if I should go to 33s.

    Will I notice any power reduction if I do?

    Will it compromise my towing capabilities? I regularly tow a little camper that weighs about 4k loaded.

    Larger Tires + 4K Trailer = No fun

    I don’t think 4k is much fun in a stock truck.
    Are you an Auto or Manual?

    Of course, lifted trucks look better with larger tires......hummm.
    I’d probably look at the lighter weight 32” tires.
    If you are a manual it might a little better.

    When in doubt, stick to the LT265/75R16, they are bigger, dont rub and look great with nearly every lift up to 3"

    Will 265 75 16 be okay for towing my 4k lb trailer?
