Default Need Rim and Tire HELP

Just bought a brand new 1500HD 4wd to pull my cars to the track. I love the truck but the stock tires have to go. I like the stock wheels but I am not sure how much rubber I can fit on them. Do you guys know what is the biggest tire I can fit on a stock wheel.

Also what is a nice wheel tire combo. Thanks for all your advice guys.

Lots of guys have put 285/75/16 on the stock wheels without much trouble. The tires may rub the plastic inside the front fenderwells, but you can use zip-ties to pull it out of the way or crank up the torsion bars some for extra clearance.

This site has some nice wheels to look at:
