thnx guys

 

c'mon guys really?? not one answer.. or an input. i mean i know its my first post on here buuut c'mon lol i really want these rims and i want to make it trouble free

 

They should fit. Those wheels would be pretty close to your stock wheels.

With that said, judging from your description and picture, you might already have some clearance issues with stock tires on a stock truck. The cladding on the GMC versions adds a little bit of length to the fenders but not so much that one could only fit 2 fingers in.

Turning the wheels from extreme left to extreme right, do the tires come in contact with the fenders at all? Have you had an alignment recently?

FWIW: Here is a picture of my truck (4WD) with 235/70r15 tires.

thnx for the reply, no the tires dont hit when turning the wheel, but its really close and also the bottom inside of fenders, where its the closest to the tire when turning, has a very lil black mark that my looked like it touched in the past, but i can trim that off no biggie and also no i havent had an alignment, i need one tho.. pulls a lil to the right
thnx!
