    I need help. What size tires/wheels would look best with a 3/1 leveling kit on my 2016? 265/75/16 or 285/70/17? I have 245/75/16 stock tires and wheels on there now and am upgrading to an A/T tire. I don't know what size to get and or to upgrade the wheel also. Recommendations and photos would be extremely helpful! Especially photos

    285s look great, but they have their drawbacks. Here is 265/70r17 on 2.5" front and 2" rear.

    Thanks! With this size you won't have to any trimming at all. Maybe remove the front mud flaps. With 285s you're going to be doing quite a lot of cutting, hammering and trimming to not rub at all.
