Tire size question

[rr38690]

If I have 2.25/1.75 BTF spacers and a 3 in body lift can I run 305/70/16 on 16x8 wheels? I have done lots of searching on here and I just want to make sure I get a good size. I want the biggest I can go without rubbing.
Thank you

It's possible. Post the make and model of your wheel and I will tell you

Here is a link to jegs.com where I got them.

They are ION Alloy 174 Series 16x8, 5-4.5, -5mm, 83.8mm
They sit pretty wide on the truck

Its certainly possible with Backspacing of 3.300 in. and an Offset -5.00mm. What tires do you plan on running? Need to look at the section width of that tire

Not sure yet, I just want to lock down a size first. I want to go as tall and wide as I can. Thanks for your help. If it will help I will try to pick a tire.

It would help. I would say the narrowest 305/70 would fit, but something as wide as say the nitto mud grappler wouldn't
