Largest possible tire

[Jacobk119]

Hey guys, im looking to put a set of wheels and tires on my 99 z71 silverado. The wheels are 16’ and backspacing is 4.5 and 0mm offset. I wanna know thr largest possible size tire i could fit. I don’t mind if i have to trim the fender a bit due to rubbing because i plan on putting a 2 1/2 in leveling kit on in the future. Thanks

It's been a minute since I owned my last one of those year model trucks but with that offset I'm pretty sure a 32x11.50 or a 285/75R16 will be the biggest that you can fit without trimming the front bumper. You have some torsion bars that may help you fit a marginally larger tire, but a 33x11.50 will likely be tops.

If memory serves you could run nearly a 35 asong as you were using stock rims and a narrow tire. The stock 16s were 6.5" wide I think.
