I run 285's with t-bars de-twisted on 17" wheels. I get a slight rub when hard over during backing

I run 295x70x17 NITTO Terra Grapplers on 17x9 rims with no rubbing but i did level the truck by adjusting the T-bars.

2006 Silverado 1500 Z71

I just installed 285/70R17 tires on my stock truck they fit without any problems , no rubbing , nothing . I used my stock 8 inch wide rims . The tires are 33 inch tall and 11.50 wide

Milestar Patagonia M/T Mud-Terrain Radial Tire. Also these tire have no hummm to them so far . Very quiet for such an aggressive tire .

Now to redo the rims
