If you guys would read his second or third post instead of jumping on here reading one post and slamming him you will notice that he said he doesn't own the truck it is one that he had looked a while back, had the picture save and liked the looks just didn't know the size.

Kind of hard to go look at the sidewall of a truck that you don't own.

Looking at the amount of sidewall (may just be pictures) looks like 285's. My truck right now is on 265's with 285's in the garage.

Thats without a doubt a 285, in my opinion. Just look at the tire in relation to the wheel. 265's dont look that big around a 16" wheel.

OOps guess he should have mentioned it off the bat, kinda missed that but with so many pictures of the truck and more specifically the tires you would think he would have gotten the tire size with those pics? I imagine the tires size was mentioned along with the pics of the tires? Sorry...without that info you got to admit it was funny...
I said I was just kidding anyway which according to others is and excuse for saying anything around here

btw that truck is lifted so it throws proportions off a bit.... I'd guess about a 30-31" tire whatever size that would come to

Heres a pic of my truck stock with 265s. the black one looks the same to me but like Auggie said if that trucks lifted a couple inches could throw off the proportions

ha, thanks for all the pics and help! they helped a ton, you guys rock (the orig pics were not taken by me, they were the ad pics)

The truck oddly did sit pretty high, though I don't recall any type of suspension.



oh and here's mine currently with 265s (truck also sits fairly high up..)







I'm still going back and forth overall, as bigger tires would be nice, yet wouldn't be that much bigger and cost $$$. Let alone the performance loss with a 5.2..... stilllll decidin (I've read through all the threads discussing them..)
