;D Oh yeah, Phil. ;D<br><br>I'm no brand junky - I just really like the BFG ATs for a few reasons. 8)<br><br>Unloaded, I run mine at about 37 PSI front and 31 PSI rear to get a &quot;normal&quot; footprint when unloaded. It's significantly softened my ride going to the BFGs. And, I keep the old set in the bed - takes the edge off the ride a bit more and gives me some ballast for the snow.<br><br>Before I took off the stock tires, I would chirp the rear tires in tight turns on dry pavement. And, on wet pavement I would break at least one of the rear tires loose in the same situation. Not so with the BFGs. I can break 'em loose if I want to - but they do so at a much higher point.<br><br>We've had a mild Winter - so I've only driven the truck twice in snow bad enough to need 4x4 engaged. The BFG ATs are much better than the stockers in snow.<br><br>Best to y'all<br>Bill <br>

Utah can you run the 315's without the lift kit...I have heard some folks doing just that but will it rub? And if it rubs where will it rub...Thanks

i have 315's on my 98 with no lift kit, i assume i can do the same on my 03, but you know what they say about assuming

;D Man, there's a bunch of room in the wheelwells of these trucks. ;D <br><br>I ran my truck for about a week with the new tires and no leveling kit - no problems. But, I went with the lift 'cause:<br><br>1) I wanted more of a 4x4 look, and<br>2) I wanted the peace of mind knowing I've got plenty of clearance when stuffed and twisted (full articulation) when off-roading. Moab - here I come!<br><br>Best to y'all<br>Bill

Utah,<br><br> Did you (or can you) put those 315 BFGs on the stock rims or do you have to get some wider rims?<br><br>F11Engineer

Hey F11. ;D

The 8-inch stock rim is just right for that size tire (8-10 inch rims are recommended). 8)

I've gone with a 10&quot; rim on a previous HD CTD Ram and that extra width is added to the outside - which makes the wheel/tire describe a larger arc as it turns. That larger arc brings the tire pretty close to the rear edge of the front wheelwell in a tight turn. I'm sticking with the 8&quot; rim this time to avoid that.

The pic below (taken to show my mudflaps) shows no undue bulging with the 315's on my 8&quot; rims.

I also have the BFG 315's on my truck with the stock rims and no lift. They fit perfect and look awesome! Here is a couple pics.

I get rubbing on the lower control arm (or is it upper I forget) on a full lock with slight compression both left and right sides.The rub mark is about 3/4 the size of a dime. No leveling kit, stock suspension and stock wheels.
