    Sounds like a plan... I am leaning toward a 3" front, but now... 305 70 17 G2's or 315 70 17 Trail Grapplers? I want the 315 Trails, but the measurements dont look like they will fit, width wise... And they dont make 305 70 Trails, so if the 315's dont work,then its the G2's...

    The 315/70 duratracs are smaller than the Trail Grapplers... it doesn't look like the TrailsGrapps will fit.

    35 nitto trail grapplers will fit on the rock warrior rims and 3in front level, I just had to adjust the front fender liner some and I also added 1in wheel spacer, as the beefier side knobs would hit the UPC. If I remember right the toyo MT would fit without the spacers.

    Exactly what I'm after... Thanks. I'm thinking 1.25 spacers anyway.

    I want to be the first to say...leave it as it. lol, it looks good already. I have 315/70/17 on my 17" RW rims with Bilstein 5100 and it fit. Although that 305 size looks pretty darn good. Really nice looking truck!

    BFG KO 2, not the most aggressive tire in the world. But my BFG set that came with the truck served me well.

    You've got a good point, but I wouldn't throw my money at one of those. Real Estate is where it's at in some areas.

    Go with LT285/75R18. More narrow tires will have more friction and thus greater traction. They'll also weigh less and have a lower rolling resistance.
