3rd gen 17s with 35s?
Has anyone put 35X12.5" tires on the 3rd gen 17" aluminum wheels? I plan to get a leveling kit or small lift but was wondering if the backspacing of the wheels would give me clearence problems? I will be going with the longer control arms when I level/lift the truck. Let me know what you think, thanks.
PS- Does anyone here run Cooper STT tires? I've had my eye on them for smetime now.

I put 325x70x17 Toyo AT's on stock rims with 2" leveling spacers on the front coils. I get a little rub on the arms at full lock on right turns only. Left turns are clear to full lock. An inch less back spacing, such as H2 wheels, would alleviate the rub.

Extended link arms and an adjustable track bar to correctly position the axle after the lift would probably alleviate the rub, too.
