Should I be if I run the 315/70r17 treadwright guard dog on a stock rim?...I know alot of other ppl do it with other tires but should I have any reservation about it with the treadwrights. My concern is that it is putting extra stress on the bonded area on the edge of the tire

I have'nt run these personally, but i've heard lots of good things about them, for the cost, i'd say they are worth a shot.

You will rub at full lock, maybe a little before full lock, and you will rub at full flex while connected.

Here are pics of my 285/70/17's on stock wheels, no lift, no spacers. I know different size tire, but yours will be 0.3" wider than mine, and of course taller.
