Then click on "profile".
Then fill in the signature box, this will appear on each post,
so you don't have to type all the truck details each time you post.
It also helps to put your location down, thay way folks can steer you in the right direction as where to get stuff done, or if there are folks nearby who can help you out.

Glad you made to this sight I run 315 no problem rubbing and the rims and tires came from H2 hummer brand new take offs $800.00 for the chrome ones. Good luck Welcome aboard. You do have to machine out the center hole for them to fit .

Were using h2 wheels because there cheap, come with good tires that are also cheap beacuse there all take offs from the h2's that people with to much money have. The problem with the stock wheel is there to narrow. the 315 tire is more or less a 34.5" tall and about 12.5' wide? bfgoodrich says you need at least an 8" wide wheel for them and there also 17" Most of us have 16" wheels. If you have a dulley I know you can run pizza cutter 33" tires on the stock wheels. I think somoneone was running the 315's with spacers. the 33" should fit without any mods to most 4x4 trucks. the 315's most people say need a 2" front lift. though mine needs more. (think my front springs sagged a ton) Alot depends on your year too. if its 1st 2nd or 3rd generation body style.

You can run 35/12.50/17 on the stock rims in front. Don't run these tires in rear w/o spacers or else you will lose some tires. The width of the rims is fine for 12.50.

Dually rims are not as wide as the SRW OEM wheel. I would be leary running a 315 on a 7 or 6.5" wide rim. Look for 285s or so...that should work real nice...maybe a 1" spacer in the rear.

I am in love with my Nitto Terra Grappler ATs in 295/70/17s...183 bucks a tire mounted and balanced and would probably go on a stock rim better than the 315s...very quiet on road, comparable to the Michelin AS I had from the factory. Look somewhere between an AT tire and a MUD tire with pretty good siping and handling. Couldn't be happier!
