295/70/17's

Anyone running 295/70/17's on their trucks? I've got a brand new set of power wagon wheels that i was planning on putting on my truck and sold the stock load D tires that came with them as i will be putting on a set of Load E's. I want to go a little bigger but dont want a 35" tire and have to deal with the spare tire fitment issue. I was looking at the duratrac again but the only size in between stock and 35" is the 295/70R17. Just curious how it looks and if it fills the wheel wells a little better them the stock PW tires do.

look at 285/75-17 they are taller than 295/70-17 295;70-17 are too small on a Power Wagon. why not go at least 315/70-17 which is slightly shorter than 35/12.5-17 altho not much shorter.

That’s what size I’d go with if I go with something other then the Duratracs. It’s just that you can’t get a Duratrac in that size and I really like the aggressive look and the 3 peak snow rating of the good year.

I was looking at possibly putting the power wagon wheels on my tradesman. How much further out do the power wagon wheels stick out vs the regular 3500 stock wheels?

The power wagon wheels seem about the same offset. Might be a slight difference but minimal.

That's what I was hoping for, thank for the reply!
