    Ok lookin for opinion here...but i settled on gettin Cooper Discover STTs to go with my RCD lift. Seem like a great mud tire that lasts 45k+ miles. So, with the RCD lift, would a 33x12.50x17 or 295x70x17 look better? They dont offer a 305 for 17" rim. What are yalls opinions?

    Only 1" width difference between a 295 and the 33x12.5x17. If you want to go with a 305 in that tire you would need to step up to a 18" but remember a 305 is only 12" wide. Just make sure you have the correct backspacing on your wheels.

    My bs is 4.5 which is required for the rcd lift. The Helos are a -12 offset so it sticks the tires out a lil more.

    I'm running 295/70/17 so honest sometime I wish I have wider tire but sometime 295/70/17 is perfect. So for my next tire I plan run 33x12.50. My wheels are 4.5 backspacing and -12 offset.

    You would probably be fine with 4 3/8. Less is better than more and its only 1/8 inch away from ideal.

    This should explain the backspacing measurement.
