RE: quick help on tire size please
I think you should be able to go to that size with no problems. You could potentially have a slight rub in certain instances but i doubt it and your truck will look better with those than the factory small tires. Remember your speedo will be off just a bit with those tires, but not much.

The rule of thumb is you don't have to recalibrate the speedo unless you go above 10% of the original tire size. The stock tires have a diameter of around 31.6, a 285 70 R17 is about 32.7 in diameter. That is about a 1.1 inch increase so you should be fine. As others have said, you speed might read a tad slow, but that is about it.

Mayfair,
Just use this little calculator:

to figure out the diameter of your current tire to the desired tire.
Hope that helps.
