Well, since's a 4x4, you'd be better off running the
same size tires (beside, the ABS will get screwed if
you have too big a variance between front/rear)...I
was looking at doing 275-65/70-17's on my wife's
4x4...but she wants it lifted, so I'm staying with
stock rims. The 275-65/17 puts you at around 30-30.5"
