I looking at some used 315/70/17 tires to mount on a set of 17*9 xd wheels. Would there be any rubbing on fenders with the truck not leveled or any other issues! Thanks ahead of time!!

 

No there will be no issues. They may rub on the suspension up front at full lock, but everybody and their mom puts 315's on these trucks with zero issues.

 

without knowing the offset of the aftermarket wheels, no one can honestly answer your question.

From everything I have read on here 315/75-16's on stock wheels do not rub unless the front has been leveled and that the rubbing on a leveled truck is minor, only occurring at full lock. Maybe you can use that information to figure out how different your new wheels will sit compared to the stockers.

 

Alright I thinK the guy said the offset was -12! Appreciate the responses!

 

Leveled or not has nothing to do with the width of your tires within the front suspension turning radius. 305s (33' x 12.5") and 315s (35' x 12.5") can rub the sway bar at full lock with stock rims. Wheel it hard and you'll polish the paint off a spot on the sway bar on each side. Not a big deal.

With aftermarket rims it would definitely depend on the offset.

 

Time out, who let you be a MOD?

 

There gos the neighborhood.

 

oh boy!!!

 

And not just a MOD... a SUPERMOD.

I'll have to check myself when following you on the trails now.

Jokes aside, I really didn't know you were a MOD on HF, cool.

SORRY FOR THE HI-JACK, resume tire talk.

 

Doc,
I saw a picture of the front end of your H3 in another thread. What brand and size tire are you running on your H3? Thanks.
