    Ive searched and searched and havnt found a solid answer. If I was to get bilstein shocks set at 2.5" and leave my stock 17" sport rims on, will I rub the UCAs with either of these tires if I dont get wheel spacers?:
    265/65/17 stock tire
    265/70/17 BFG A/T
    285/70/17 BGF A/T

    yeah i thought about the spidertrax but my friend tells me theyre dangerous, esp in a wreck but idk. From what ive read on here the people who have used the spidertrax brand havnt had any problems, but still theres a risk involved i guess

    I'll think about em but idk. the 265s will be cheaper too, if i go with those. I saw a pic of MyToyTaco's truck with a 3 inch lift and 265/70/17 BFG A/Ts on stock rims and it looks real good
