crank your torsion bars about an inch and you can fit 32x11.50's definitely worth it imho, can't beat it. it rubs on the fenders but nothing major for the 6k i've had them on for now. it is more of a check out my sweet truck sound then a my tires are to big sound. haha sorry for all the pics lol

31's stock but my bfgs that I had even rubbed a little bit. I have 32's now with my torsion bar cranked and it looks way better than 31's, Mine dont rub on my fender at all just on my frame a little bit when im backin up with the wheel at full lock

What MPG do you get with the 32s on there with the 4.7L?
Also, what gear ratio are you running?
