Thank you for all the comments so far.
I did much searching on the forum and I am leaning towards 305/70/17 as #1 followed by 295/70/17 on 17x9 wheels.

I don’t want to regret going with 33’s like most everyone on here :lol: but I also do not want to go with 35’s. So 34’s sounds like a good compromise.

Will I be OK running 305s on stock suspension for a while as long as I don’t go off-road?
