Hey boys, i have a 2001 extended cab silverado, rear wheel drive. I was going to get some new tires, and i was wondering how big a tire i can get. I have 245s right now, just the stock tires, but i was looking at getting getting something around 275 or 295. Do i need to get new rims to get tires that big? If so, how big of a tire can i get with the stock rims?

I don't think 305 will fit.

ooops sorry i forgot that 2wd dont hav torsion bars and I think someone said in another thread that you could fit 305s on a 4x4 but u need to crank the hell out of your torsion bars. With 2wd the biggest u can go is probly 285 or 275 without any rubbing.

I wouldn't put any bigger than a 265 on a 2wd personally. 285's are pushing it and 305's just wont make it.
If its a 4x4, then you can put 305's, but you have to crank the t-bars some.
