S/B a 17X7.5...

A 285/70/17 (33") will fit with no problems.. Anything bigger like a 315 would most likely rub.. The 265's are a 31.5-32 I believe depending on brands.. If you don't go to big there isn't any need to recalibrate for tire 'oversize' (gem module) as smaller dimensional differences are calculated for...

I don't know of any brand that makes a 285/"75"/17.. "YET" ..Could be wrong though

The 285/70/17 is a clean fit in that MY.. If you do go alot wider on rims, or much taller tires, you may have to do a slight lift, like 2" or leveling blocks for fit.. These trucks sit nose down in the front and would have to be leveled to go to a 9"wide rim or greater to avoid rubbing up front.. Running 'tall' sidewall tires also compromises the side wall for sway/stabilty as well..
