What size rims and tires?
Just bought a used '08 2500 4x4. Am planning on doing the two inch leveling kit. My question is what are the biggest tires I can run without rubbing and what size rim should I go with. Was looking at the 18" rim, but it looks like I have alot more selection by going with the stock size rim of 17". Would like to run the biggest BFG A/T I can. Also plan on doing the DPF delete and have already purchased the XRT-pro Programmer. Was told they are no longer going to be selling these because of EPA. Any info on both would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

9 inch wide wheel with no less than 5.5 backspacking.
315/70/17 is bfg tire you are looking for. It is ok, I've ran it. It is D rated and I swapped to an E rated tire; even though that 315 is rated for the same weight as the factory tire seems I had to keep the fronts aired almost to max to keep them from sagging.
