I have a 2005 Chevy crewcab 4X4 2500HD.  I just put a TRUXXX level kit. 3" in the front and 1" in the rear.

I am trying to figure out how big of tires I can get without rubbing anything.

I am debating on Nitto Terra Grappler

either
295 70 17 *33.19 inches tall 12.13 inches wide

or

305 70 17  *33.98 inches tall and 12.36 inches wide

I do Truxxx Kits 3 or 4 times a month at my shop and they say a 33" tire will fit with no cutting, however it also depends on the back spacing of the wheel your putting the tire on. To much backspace will caust the tire to rub the valence on the bottom corner, but an easy fix with a quick trim.  
Where's the time to work on MY stuff?
