No..The biggest tire you could get stock from factory on 17" rims was 265/70/17.. Which is only a 31" tire. Whereas 285/70/17 are almost 33". On the factory 20" wheels they did come 33" tires stock
It's the same truck just different wheels, I don't care what the 17 came stock with. The TRUCK fits 33s from the factory
You can reindex the torsion bars with new keys for 100 bucks or so and get 2". I got almost 3" but the ride was pretty harsh and backed it down to about 2.5.
I'm getting rid of my 285's and going with 315's later this month.
i didnt think you could do that with a 2007 1500 2wd

i have an 06 2wd with the factory 20's 275/60 goodyears on them. i have plenty of room and definitely no rubbing. heck i think i have room to go 275/65 without rubbing as well. my suspension is all stock. i do have the lonestar edition 1500 so i don't know if that matters to other available models. i also have the 3.92 gears and not sure if that matters either
