Even with 285s and leveling kit, you are still going to have to trim some plastic to keep them from rubbing. I have an 08 HD Z71 w/ leveling kit. Can't fit anything bigger than 285 without a few inches of lift. Started out with BFG MT KM2s. Just a week ago I had one blow out on me on my way back from Big Lake. (40k miles on em) Lucky to come out of that one alive. Caused $3k worth of damage to my truck. On my way to tire shop my front right tire started peeling. Needless to say, I filed a claim against Michelin (makers of BFG) for defective tires. I just went with 285/70r/17 Firestone Destinations and love em. They look awesome and dont hum bad. I looked at the Fierce tires made by Dunlop, but they have a redneck looking barb wire running around the outside wall of tire. Not for me.
