Ordering some procomp 7059 so backspace is non issue. I lovvve the look of the 35, im just worried about the gearing/mileage/power loss and additional wear and tear that larger tires cause if any.

 

i have the 315 duratracs. mounted they end up exactly at 33.5"

i have 3.73's. but also have a manual. a regear would be nice.. but def not needed. its fine. with an auto it would be a dog i think..

you will need a spacer to fit the tire on the carrier. also some daystar bumpstops to help reduce the vibrating. i ran it for a couple weeks but it shook a good amount. my tail gate did sag just from a couple weeks of doing that

goodluck. you will be happy with the tires. they are pretty good all around

 

GO WITH BIGGER TIRES.. YOU WILL REGRET THE 33'S. as for the gas mileage. suck it up for a little bit. dont romp on it. and gas wont be as bad. Dya have a auto or stick?

 

I have an auto

 

Will I have to use spacer w/ 4 backspace on my wheels?

 

I have a Nitto Terra Grapplers 295/70/17 on Black XD Addicts. There a little larger than 33". But I also have a 3" BDS lift. The Nitto Terra Grapplers are pretty aggressive but are very good on the street and highway. Plus they look real nice.
I love the combination of of 3" lift on 33"s. Just enough lift and tires but still enough room for Flex and street drivability.
The nice thing is that the spare fits without an adapter. It barely fits, but it fits and looks real nice. Just make sure your wheels have 4.5" backspacing.
Bigger tires do effect the gas a bit but I off-set it a bit with a Superchips Flashpaq.

With the Nitto Terra Grapplers - If you rotate them with every oil change you can get between 35-40k miles out of em'.

This is my setup but opinions vary.

 

you can't make a post like that and not post pics!

 

Oh cool. I guess I was thinking about my own tire decisions there. I'm staying with the stock wheels.

 

they look nicer and when you cut your flares and make them flat you wont be like dam i need bigger tires now. i got dick cepek 35" crushers and i love how they look and now with the super chip it helps with gas milage. you can find ppl that sell them used on here the siper chip for around 275-300. and get cold air intake and exhaust. but the bigger tire would help on the trails i learned that lession at shamrocked

 

Go with the 35s. If u don't, you'll wish u did. If u go with the 33s, you will know the 35s would look that much better. Trust me. After u get the 35s, youll start thinking on how u can get 37s on. And so on and so on.
