I have 285/70/17 bfg mt's and am considering 35's with a leveling kit. What would be the advantage of the 35 versus 33 and how stuffed under there would they look. Need pic's please!!!!!!

 

im sure others have pics, but my friend had a leveled 05 with 35s and it looked sweet!

 

[/IMG] Truck is leveled 2 1/2 inches and has 315x70x17 BFG AT's, 35x12.5x17 still get 16-17 mpg easy.

 

i dunno if you will get 16-17mpg easy unless your on the interstate which i barely get 16.5-17 doing 70.

city i have gotten up to 15 with a very light foot. on average i get about 13.

but i would say 35's. i have seen leveled w/ 33 and leveled with 35s and 33's still look to small IMO.

 

Thanks guys, I found some 315/70/17 Kumho road venture MT for 189.00 a piece from Kauffman Tire. Great Deal?

 

id say the level and 35's, thats what i did.

with tires you generaly get what you pay for. I have no exparience with the kumhos but that seems to be a cheap price for 35's for 17's. I definitely feel comfortable recomending the 315/70/17 BFG KO's. onlinetires.com seems to be the cheapest place for them.

anyways, here is a few pics

 

Man your truck looks great. Same tires i'm going with but 285/70/17. Whats your fuel economy like with them tires?

 

Ive has 35/12.50 pro comp's and 305/70/17's. I prefer the 305's, power is a little better but I still dont see over 13mpg

 

I personally think 35s look too big on a leveled truck. That's a big tire to get jammed up into that wheel well when you hit a big obstacle.

 

I'd go with the 35's, as far them rubbing and what not, mine don't rub at all, and when I wheel I just baby it a lil bit. I average around 14mpg with mine.... all in all thats not too bad IMO.

Can't get pics to post. Anyway check out my gallery, I run my truck over a hundred miles a day and am suprised how good the mileage is even with the large tires. Programmer help's.

 

Do you have a 2wd or 4wd? Here's mine, 2.5 leveling 33x12.50 and 2wd:
