Hi STX,

A 315/70R17 is approximately a 35x12.50R17. We've had a lot of guys run 35" tires on '08 and newer trucks with both stock and leveled suspensions.

The fitment will depend entirely on properly sized and backspaced wheels, but with the right wheels you should be able to run 315/70R17 without significant rubbing.

Thanks,

Acer Engineering
