I wanna know as well. I've learned 285/70/17 are not a problem at all. I've heard people have went bigger to 305's and even 35's but I dunno for certain....

I went with 295's, and I believe 305's would work as well. I still have room left with mine on.

Well I didn't go with a metric measurement but I did put 33x12.50/R17 on my 2002 QC 1500 4x4. Did not have to touch the torsion bars and there isn't any rubbing.
