So I just got a set of rebel wheels with tires. They’re factory tires at 285/70/17. I had a set of factory 20’s with 275/65/20’s that I sold. Truck is leveled with Bilstiens at 2.8” and the back with a 1” spacer. 2 questions: 1) what size are guys running with the 17” wheels. 2) what A/T type tire are you running?

285 is the widest you can put on factory 17" wheels because of clearance at the upper ball joint.

I have 285/70r17 Continental terraincontact a/t, no complaints. Bigger tires would fit but I care a lot more about utility than cosmetics and these do what I need. Can't fit bigger than 34" in the spare location anyway.

Factory Rebel wheels are 17x8 +18 offset. You should be able to fit 305/70/17 or 315/70/17 tires with a level. I'm running BFG KO2 315/70/17 myself on 17x9 -12 wheels.

On my 2010(really regret trading in) 3.92 gears.I was 285/70/17 duratracs... they seemed to last forever

On my 2016 I went 285 75 17 toyo ATiii
They are far quieter than the duratracs but I find toyos are not as wide as other brands in the same size. Of.course they fill the wheel well out but this truck being 3.21 gears you can feel a difference from when I had 285 70r17 on it to going up in size

Rim offset is +10

Both trucks leveled
2010 bilsteins 2.8
2016 eibach pro lift 2.75
