Nope, I had 305/70/16 on my factory wheels.

You could get the nitto terra grapplers for under a grand for all 4.

Here's some prices I pulled up on 4wheel parts(which is by no means cheap compared to other places).

Terra G 305/50/20-$245
Toyo Muds- 33x12.50x20-$371
Toyo All terrain 275/60/20- $221
Dick Cepek FCII- 325/50/20-$321
BFG Ats 285/55/20-$343

I wouldn't hesitate to run any one of those tires with the exception of the Toyo All terrains, but that's only because I don't have any experience with them.
