2009 2500 4X4 QC. 2.5" front leveling kit with 17" rims. Okay now what is the largest tire I can fit without rubbing or using spacers?? I'm leaning toward 285-70-17's or 35's I just don't know if 35's will fit and I do NOT want to lift the truck or use spacers. Any pictures of a 2500 with 285-70-17's would be cool. I'm looking at the BFG AT's

Thanks everyone

Welcome to the site.

If you are not wanting to lift or level then i would leave well enough alone. Im sure you could go up an inch or two but without lifting or leveling the front you could be asking for rubbing issues under the right (or wrong) conditions.

I have a 2 1/2" level kit and 285/70x17s on my '03 4x2 . I suspect there is enough room to go a size or two larger, but I'm not sure.
