    Look on your door jamb for the factory size tire and wheel that came with the truck......the label will also include load rating.

    well i got them mounted and balanced with a 235/75 i got a set for 130 mounted and balanced just needed them till december or so,

    but i didnt like how they looked though they look tiny on my truck so im saving up to buy 255/70 BFG Rugged Trail and getting a leveling kit and most likely a Locker since its 2WD With No G80

    Valuetrac/4.10s FTW!!! You won't need a leveling kit for that tire. It's only a hair over 30" tall. If you are wanting a more off-road rugged look I would go with at least a 31-32" Tire. Some guys even run a 33" tire with only a leveling kit. I would also go with BFG Mud terrains or the equivalent from General Tire.

    stock size on mine is 265/75 16. But in the past i had 285 and a 305 on there. I think they made the truck look better with how much wider they were than stock. and they both were an at style tire.

    if you could get me a link to the valutrac that would be great,, leveling kit is more of a look thing i hate how its leaning forward put new gas monroe shocks all around thought it would pick it up a bit but no luck, so going with the 2.5 to 3.. What size would the 32 be?

    One more question Is $500 A fair price on Labor+Parts on the leveling kit?

    Will the 03-06 2WD Leveling kit fit mine? many websites only carry 03+

    I went from a 16 to a 17 inch Mickey Thompson Sidebiter..Im running 285/70/17 on a 2003...It does have a leveling kit but I only needed about 1 1/4 inches to level...The M/T sidebiter B wheels have a 0 offset...5 inch back space...if you look on the net it says they wont fit..They actually fit good..about 1 1/2 inch out past the fender.....and that's with 285's

    I switched to the Nitto terra G tires...The ride is best it's ever been...even with the leveling...
