Do you want an all terrain tire or a mudder? Nitto make a Terra Grappler (all terrain) and a Trail Grappler (mudder) in a 295-60-20 that is 34.45" tall, E-rated and fits 8"-10" wheel. I can't stand tires that are too wide and roll in from the tread to the lip of the rim. makes the tire handle worse and they wear like crap. just my .02!

I've got them too. Warrantied for 50K. Keep your records of rotation/rebalance. Coming out of Toyo MT's they are way quieter.

What gears you running? You plans for the truck? You plan on towing heavy. I run 18/295/65 33in tires and 3.73 gears, I'm going back to stock size tires as the truck tows heavier easier with the stock tires on.
I'm going to put the 18/295/65 onto my 02 truck, as it likes the bigger sized tires. I run 35in on the truck and towed some decently heavy loads over the years.

I'm wondering the same, and as far and offset and backspacing. I don't want anything that sticks out more than an inch from the sides of the truck. Looking at probably getting the nitro trail grapplers. 33-34". Any suggestions would be great on how to size wheels, thanks!

Im running Dale Earnhardt JR DJ708 Rimmell wheels with 0 offset they are 17X8.5 The tires are 35X12.50 17 NITTO Trail Grappler MT's. They barely rub at the back of the fender at full turn. Not enough to worry with I wanted the tallest tire (most ground clearance) I could get without lifting my truck. I am happy with it.

Thanks man I appreciate it. They do stick out about 3 inches. They haven't thrown any rocks on the cab yet but I have running boards. That helps.
