Largest tire on 06 quad cab

What is the largest mud tire that you can put on a 06 Dodge quad cab w/o a lift that will not rub?

I wouldn't go past 33's on 17 X 10 inch rims. 35's will definately rub. I installed 35 BFGs on 17 X 10 rims on a 2005 QC and had to add a 2 inch leveling kit. Even then, the tires rubbed the rear fender wall. Light tapping with a hammer took care of that.

Guys have been using 315 equivalents on H2 wheels without rub issues. For OEM wheels, 305 equivalents are the largest without rub. 315s on OEM wheels will rub just a litle on the sway bar/control arm at full lock. If you search for H2, you will find the offsets somewhere buried in the hundreds of posts. I don't have the numbrs off hand.

35x12.50 x17 on stock rims rubbed a bit on the control arms. Put them on my new rims...didnt rub at all.

I right now on my offset rims ( 4.75) my 37's rubbed a bit on the front of the fender...so it was cut.
