Default ok last thread but need help quick!

I made up my mind finally!

Nitto Terra Grappler 305/70/17 which is a 34x12.5r17 and it has a E rating. $250ea
KMC XD series enduro wheel. 17x9 with 5.00 back spacing. $140ea

Will this wheel/tire combo fit my truck. Its a 2003 4x4 ram with the torsions cranked and rear airbags? Need to know ASAP since i'm going to the shop this week. I think this combo will fill the wheel well and have that off road Pre-runner look. I hate the look of lifted trucks. Please give your opinion THANKS.

I have those exact same tires on my truck now and not a problem at all with clearance even tho i got mine for 198 a piece also i dont have any issue with them throwing rocks or dirt onto the truck so no need for fender flares with those tires

I just paid $127 each for Terra Grapplers in 265/65/17 for my lifted Grand Cherokee at a local tire store, if I'm not mistaken the 305/70/17s were right around $200 there.

tirepackages.com had the wheels for $140. I think they are a part of 4wheelparts. Im just going to print out the wheel and have Americas Tire match the price.
