hey if you havent bought the rims yet you could get the same rims in a 15x10. they will make your truck look even better. i was thinking about doing the same thing myself in the next week. i am gonna get the same rims but get the 33x12.50r15 bfg all terrains.

ORIGINAL: MonkeyWrench4000

Ziggy you definately have to fit 285/75s in there. If your going to spend $400+ on the tires, you might as well order some 16x8 wheels off of summit racing. You can get the black gloss Kragars for like $30 each, so you can get 4 of those cheap and fit those tires on there. Then the truck will look even bigger.
went to Big O tire yesterday to have my valve stem replaced and had them double check for me...the guy that originally bought the truck ordered it with 16x8's and sure enough they are still on it. so no need to spend another 200+ on rims right yet heh. but damn...bfg all terrain ko's are about 190 a tire for 285/75/16s...stupid 16" rims lol

actually its a 2 inch difference i think. but hey u have to pay ur bills and thats the most imortant thing in life. also the bridgestone duelers are a good alternative all terrain. they are a little cheaper tha the bfg's and have about the same tread life. have u checked tirerack.com they usually have the best prices on tires.
