need tire help!!!

[kountryjentleman]

im running 275/65/16's on the stock rims of my 2000 sierra k1500. how much bigger can i go without too much rubbing on the same rims?

 

if i cant go much bigger without lifting, what is the best looking cheep way to do it?

i know 285/75/16 will with out any changes. 305/70/16 will fit also but due believe you will have to crank up the torsion.

I have 285/75-16 on my stock rims and fit just fine. Now a 305/70-16 is the same as a 285/75-16 with regards to height, but the width is increased by 1.5" I beleive it is. On turning you may rub rear lip of front fender. I ahev sen stock trucks run the 305 size with no mods and no rubbing and I have seen same year trucks with rubbing only on full turning of steering capacity. If you go off road and flex your suspension at all I wouldnt recommend the 305's w/o at least a 1-2" lift

Would the same tires sizes apply to a 2002 1500 HD model¿
