Tires no level kit?
My tires on my 2011 Dodge Ram 2500 4x4 diesel needs replced. I want to go from 265/70-17 to 285/70-17 without installing a leveling kit. Will the 285 tires fit my truck?

i was running 35x12.5x17 on mine with no leveling kit, did have a slight rub on turns, which is why i put the kit. So IMO u have no problem running the tires in question.

I see you have a leveling kit. Did you add it before you got the tires? How are the tires holding up?

I got the tires first. Added the leveling kit mostly for looks and front-end clearance. BTW, Power Wagons come with 285s from the factory. The Hankooks are great- had them on my last truck too.

I like the tires. Are they loud? I spend days driving do not need tire noise.
