Well, the 295's WILL fit !

[AustinZ71]

Everybody I have asked said they would NOT fit at all. My buddy that works at discount said he couldn't get any NItto Grappler A/T in the 295/70/17 size for a while. Well low and behold, he got ONE set in today and called me. I hauled ass down there and we test fitted them. They worked !! so I bought them. No rubbing whatsoever and we didn't touch the torsion bars or even trim anything ! I've put about 70 miles on them so far with ZERO problems, and I LOVE these tires.

I'm so thrilled and I got my NERF bars put on today, what do you guys think of my truck so far ? lol I bought it 5 days ago.

The truck looks great! Except for one thing. The undercoat guy got a little sloppy. It is all over your fender flare, just behind the front tire. Get it off before it sets up like concrete!

 

I know, I am a bit anal, but a blemish like that on such a sweet ride is a crime! BTW, you owe your buddy a case of beer for the phone call!

Thanks and lol that is tire dressing fling-off. The dealer gooped the tire dressing on too thick and it got flung all over that part.

 

She'll be getting a detail this weekend.

 

Instead of a 12 pack, I already sent him 2 other people wanting new tires

Are 295's the tallest we can go stock?

[rdnkcpa]

What did you do with the factory tires?

[Jasonsupafly]

Slightly bigger tires always look better....

295 is the tread width in mm's.

I had them listed on here in the classified section for a few days and nobody was interested so I'm going to sell them to my neighbor I think

How much does a set of those run? I've never seen those stock Chevrolet rims. . .are they 15"?

Please disregard the "are they 15"" question, please.

Looks good Austin

 

I just got a set of 285/70/17 BFG ATs yesterday...wish i had known the Nittos would have fit, i could have saved $40/tire.

 

I'm very happy so far with my BFGs though...it handles and rides like a totally different truck. Too bad GM puts such junk tires on stock.

You know what they say about big rubbers......
