Max Tire Size ???

I just had my PRG 2" Leveling lift installed on my 06 Titan LE 4x4. That came to $250can. including the alignment. I want to go with either the Nitto Trail Grappler or the Toyo M/T
I was hoping you could put a 305/65/r 17 on but either of those tires come in that size, Has anyone tried the Toyo 295/70 R17's ? I doubt anyone has tried the Nitto yet as they only came out 1 week ago. If so do you have any pictures.
Procomp and the BFG KM2's come in the 305 65 R 17 Has anyone tried those sizes ? Will I need Fender Flares ? Any info will help

My buddy has 295/70/17 Nitto's with no leveling kit and it barely rubs at all. I think you can get away with 325/60/18's with a leveling kit and maybe the PWM.

Re: Max Tire Size ???

I'm currently running the Toyo M/T LT295/70R17 on the stock Off Road 17x7.5" rims with about 3" of front lift and stock rear height. Lots of clearance. I would think with a 2" level kit you'd clear easy with 07- XE or OR rims. With wider rims and/or a smaller than stock backspacing, (5.375" on the 17s), you will more likely need the pinch weld mod. Say like a 17x9" with 4.5" backspacing will rub.

Re: Max Tire Size ???

Has anyone went from the stock 17" rims to the stock 20" rims. I found some for sale and am interested in switching over to a bigger rim/tire combo. Just curious of the pros/cons if any. Please let me know... Thanks!

Re: Max Tire Size ???

Alot of folks went to the 295/70-17s and those will be my next tires as well. My rugged trails are still holding up good with 35,500 miles on them so it won't be until a year or so... hopefully... but the terra's will by next set.

I run the 20'' rims and before you buy you might want to check out the diffference in cost for rubber. Once you hit 20 the price increases.

Re: Max Tire Size ???

Not trying to hi-jack this post, but I am in the same situation as jakalminch, but I have 18" rims. I read on here that with the PRG leveling kits you can run 35's with out rubbing. Can anyone confirm this with 18" rims. I am looking at running the BFG A/t's with XD Monster rims. I basically want to install the leveling kit and put the tires/rims on and forget about it. I dont want to deal with rubbing issues. My biggest concern though is that I don't get a tire big enough to fill the wheel well and then the thing looks really stupid. Here are the tires I am looking at, anyone have any thoughts? Also any thoughts on back spacing of these rims?
285-65-18 = 32.7in
305-65-18 = 33.7in
325-65-18 = 34.61in
Stock is 265-70-18

Re: Max Tire Size ???

You will definitely have to do the PWM. Have you checked out the 325/60/18?

Re: Max Tire Size ???

Will I have to do this mod with all three choices?
BFG does not offer the 325-60 in 18 according to their web site.
Does anyone have any suggestions on a good tire size to match the XD wheels with a leveling kit so it doesn't look dumb?

The 305's would fit fine with the leveling kit.
