I have a 05 silverado that has 265 70/17 on it I was woundering how big of A tire can I go that will still clear in the front. I was thinking of going with the bfg all-train but I am not real sure how well they will do Since i drive almost 50 miles a day roundtrip for work and it is all highway miles.
But what is the biggest that will fit Using the stock wheels. If you have any pictures with different tires on a stock hieght silverado please post pictures or send them to my email. dmiller89@cinci.rr.com
Thanks

A lady friend of mine just purchased an 05 Z71 x-cab stepside and she put 285's on it and did NOT turn the torsion bars at all. No scrubbing at all. I drove it the other day around my hunting land and it never once scrubbed.

They were Cooper A/T's. And I think they measure about 32.8" give or take a half inch.
