I have those exact wheels and I am running 285/75 r16 tires on them. They are 33" tires.

They just say that in case they get sued for something.

X2.

I've got those wheels with 265/75/16's on one truck, 285/75/16's on another truck, and 35x10.5x16's on a third truck. Of course the 35's have weld on beadlocks though. lol.

Not at all. Will be a great tire/whel combination for you.

You'll get good wear out of them if you rotate them about every 10,000kms or so.

Good tire. Bit of a rough ride when you pump them up all the way (which you should to maximize miliage).

I don't really post my progress. But I have random pictures on my computer. Thanks for the complements. It is actually real dirty right now. Did a little mudding this past weekend and haven't washed it all off. Will be cleaning it up tomorrow.
