These are the tires I want on my truck. Unfortunately, they are a new line for this company and very expensive. I have been quoted by a couple of sources of $1,200. Ouch!

Try a 5.75" backspace and you should be fine. At 6" you might get some rubbing on the control arms.

Today, I put 295/70R/17 Nitto Dura Grappler AT tires on my truck. They look great! I am running 17X7.5 rims, otherwise I would have gone bigger. $820, nitrogen filled out the door...
