Hey, I just bought a 95 Chevy 2500, extended cab and long bed. I want to put new tires on without a lift kit, And want to know how big I can go with the least amount of damage to my checkbook. Right now I have 265, 75, r16's on and I want a more aggressive tire, taller, and wider. I'm not sure how to go about this without needing more room in my tire well. anyone with any thoughts or ideas on the matter?

I have a 01 GMC 2500HD 4x4 Ext cab. I am running 285/75/R17. They do rub slightly when turning sharp either direction. I have no lift and haven't turned the torsion keys. Good luck!
