Default Tire Questions before install Monday.

Hey everyone,

I finally decided on what to get for my new Ram 07 Quad Cab 4x4 SLT. I went with the daystar 2" leveling kit, Go Rhino Dominator II nerf bars with the steps, American Eagle 1978 black rims in a 17x9 with a 4.5" backspace with a -11 offset. I wanted to go with the Nitto Terra's in the 305 70 17 but the shop said he thought they would rub too much and stick out to far. So he ordered me the 295 70 17. However it seems like alot of people on here are running 305's... That is what I want but I am assuming the custom truck place would know... Is he right? What are everyone's opinions?

On those wheels, 305's will only stick out another 5mm. They may rub, though. Not sure 'bout the inside. Be assured, they'll stick "in" another 5mm as well.
