I'm running 315/75/16 BFG's on 10x16 rims with 6in and they fit but can rub when full turns and going over a bump.
What kind of mileage are you getting and how does the truck perform with your 4.88 gears and 315 tires? Looking at doing a gear change in my truck but do not want to reduce any mileage on the road but would be nice to keep in O/D better and also pull a little better.
