yes
your a newb and didn't search hard enough.
theres a chart with the max tire sizes you can fit..


butttt anything's possible with a sawzall.



What kind of "truck" did you ride in with BFGs? what kind of BFGs? the type of tire, load range, pressure, weight of truck, shocks, springs.. etc all come into play with ride quality.

considered going this size on my truck but figured my need for gas mileage outweighs the time i spend off road and would like the extra traction

You know that you could have read the size right off the side of the tire right!

IF you would look at your tire, you'd see what size your wheel diameter is. Last digits of the tire size....235/75R15....see that 15? Look at your door sticker to see factory wheels and tire sizes.

It looks like you already have BFG's on there, what more do you want.....

Its on way more then that. It is stamped all over the place now. It helps track down your car after it has been to the chop shop. My buddies Acura TL has the VIN stamped on the battery tray. Its nuts.

It's only all over if you get the vin etching done on your truck. Mine had it, and the vin was etched on every single body panel, all the glass, and most of the mechanical pieces.

And dude, not to rag on you, but posting a thread 'cause you don't want to walk outside to look at your tire?
