I'm running the 305x55x20 Nitto Terra's at stock 4x4 height (33x12.5) with no rubbing. The 305x50's should have more room.

Your truck looks great! Any problems with traction control and speedo?

No problem's with traction control, speedo has been re-calibrated for the taller tires.

I lost about 1-1/2 mpg's opposed to the stock Pirelli's, most of this is in stop and go traffic.
