Hey yall,

I am looking at new tires for my 2011 3500. It currently has 235/80/R17's and I am looking at getting the TOYO Open Country M/T's. I was wondering what is the biggest that I can go up in size without having to get new rims. I was thinking about 265/70/17's. Any input on these tires or on sizes would be appreciated. I do tow stuff from time to time, about 13k pound pull behind trailer or a utility with a Rhino or a 22ft. Shearwater CC. I am wanting something that will have great tread life as well as handle muddy roads and rocky areas. Work on the pipeline so.

I have had TOYO on multiple vehicles in the past. I love them on my cars, so I put them on my Truck, couldn't get them off fast enough, I actually pull them off with 75% wear left on them and sold them. I know tires are a personal thing and many people will have a different opinion than I, and hey to each his/her own. I have jumped to BFGoodrich All Terrain T/A and have never looked back. Good in the dry, not loud on the highway, good in the mud and snow in northern Canada. here is a tire calculator that I use http:////tire-size-conversion.com/tire-size-calculator/ If there is a hyperlink to one of the many great sponsors of the site for this, let me know and I will remove this one.

As for tire size... You can easily run 285/70/17's without rubbing. That is what comes from the factory on the Power Wagons so you can get the dealer to reflash the PCM to get the speedo right.
