Tire Question

I have to replace my tires and was wondering what is the largest tire size I can do on a stock 2001 Ex 4X4 without rubbing issues ?
Also has anyone tried the Toyo Open Country M/T's on their truck? If so what do you think of them.

295's are a safe bet. Some brands of 305's and even 5315's will fit without major issues until at full lock and articulation.

Some like the Toyo's, others hate 'em. However, few, if any, have anything bad to say about Bridgestone REVOS.

Thanks for the responce Monsta. I decided to go with 285-75-16 Toyo Open Country M/T's. Got them this morning. They are a little noisey but they look wicked and roll through mud like nothing !!
