As a follow up to this thread I ended up with 285/75R17 Yokohama Geolandar MT G003s and they are freaking awesome.

Definitely a bit smaller than advertised but that is to be expected. I'm thinking that with a bit more trimming of the rear fender area (where the mud flap formerly was), a "custom" BMC/relocation by a local fab guy in November, and flattening of the pinch weld, that everything should be good to go.

I wanted to try to avoid running a body lift because I want the Victory 4x4 front hybrid bumper eventually and the fitment isn't made to be compatible with a BL according to them. Plus I didn't want the hassle of installing one of them but we shall see after all of the aforementioned stuff if that BL is necessary in the end.
