heh guys I have a 2005 ram 4x4 with 17" stock tires what size of aftermarket tires are you guys running and what brands I want some thing a little bigger that will fit without rubbing can someone help me out or if you have any pictures thanks

 

I'm happy with my BFG AT KO 285/70/17. No rubbing on or off road. Pics in my gallery.

 

many many posts on this on many boards

but 35s on stock backspacing wheels rub a bit on the arms, only at full lock.

the 33s on stack backspacing dont rub at all

when you go to a 4.5" backspace wheel, 33s may rub, 35s will.

as for tires, there are comments about BFG causing death wobble, I have not had that problem. Toyo seems to be a good choice as well, they even come "E" rated.

there are some pics in my gallery, I will be going to 37s as soon as my 35s wear out, or I sell them first. I only have a 2-3" lift.

 

I,m running 35 procomp at. I have now problems they wear preety good no power lose. But i have 410 gears helped my fuel milge. Good luck on tires

 

What he said. According to Discount Tire Company's computer....the 285's are the largest tire that the truck is rated to use without rubbing issues on the stock wheels. The stocker 265's are definately to small and imho the 315's are just a little to big. The 285's are a good compromise between the two for looks and performance (not robbing power).

 

Agree 285 17's BFG AT KO's are on my truck and i am having them and the aluminum wheels moved over to my mega cab when it gets here, stock michelins suck for anything other than dry road driving IMHO

 

I've got 305/65/17 Pro Comp Xtreme A/T's, love them so far and still E-load range!

 

are the BFG AT KO's a load E range tire

 

No, they are D load range, although rated for a higher weight they are an 8 ply tire I believe.

 

so will they be ok for towing I pull a 3000lb trailer every day and every once in a while a 7000lb trailer

 

LT285/70R17 Cooper Discover STT's LRD 3,195 lb carrying capacity @ 65 psi.

Yes, they would be fine.

 

Stuck a set of Toyo Open Country MT's 295 70R 17 Load Range E at 3980 Lbs per tire.... Had them road force balanced, smooth ride, a little noisy, no lift on the truck, completely stock, no rubbing what so ever even hitting bumps at full lock.
