I would really like to get tires in a larger diameter - since our stock ones are 33", I think 35" is perfect. The only problem is to get 35's you gotta go to a 12.5" wide tire (lots of manufacturers for this size). However, if you do go to 12.5" wide you (I) will need a spacer on the fronts to make sure they don't hit the upper ball joint...

So, with a little research I found that BFG makes an All Terrain (their famous AT) in a 285/65-20, which is 34.6" tire. The width should come in close to ours at around 11+".

So, I am thinking that this may be the perfect solution: almost 35" diameter so looks cool from the side, and no spacer needed on the fronts (2006-2008). Somebody check me on this - a spacer may be required, I don't know.

I really dont want to space my fronts out because I live in the NW and there will be dirt/mud all over my truck (without flares, which I dont want).

Does anyone have a pic of their truck with these tires? Many thanks in advance if you could share it with us here.

Bump - I see a lot of discussion about bigger tires. Surely Im not the only one wondering about a 35" tire with less than 12.5" width...???
