I haven't been able to find a clear answer in the forums here, but hoping somebody can help. I've got the 2022 Limited Night edition with air suspension. 22x9 wheels and 285/45R22 tires. I wondering what the biggest tire size you can do is with no rubbing, no modifications whatsoever. When these tires wear out, I plan to put AT tires that are slightly larger on. Looking at tiresize.com and figuring I could do something like a 295/50R22 (or possibly even 285/55R22, but that's getting up there). I still want to be able to fully use the air suspension, including Aero mode without any rubbing issues. Anybody else figure out what the biggest fitment is on a stock Limited? Thanks!

following, interested in same, although the most I would want to go is 33, but trying to keep the same XL rating. Don't need a E rated tire

This thread seems to have a good amount of information, although I'm still not 100% certain what the biggest tire is that truly will not rub. I am thinking that either 295/50R22 (D/E rated) or 305/45R22 (XL rated) will be safe. The latter is significantly less money for the same tires (I was comparing Toyo AT3). And I noticed the E rated 295 Toyo is 63 pounds per tire while the XL rated 305 is 47 pounds per tire - pretty big difference! That being said, the tire specs for the Toyo 305 state that the rim width range is 9.5-11.5, so I'm not certain they would actually work on our 22x9 wheels. 🤷‍♂️

No problem, I think you’ll be very happy with them. Slightly rougher ride but worth the trade off for much better traction. The Toyo’s are great all terrain tires. Your speedometer will be off a bit as well but there are a few ways to correct it. I bought the Tazer DT and it worked great plus some other things you can customize with it. Dealership can do it too I believe.

That’s the way I like it.

Went with the Nitto Recon Grappler 285/55/22. They look so much better than the OME tires 285/45/22. I did have rubbing on the passenger side at full lock to the left both forwards and in reverse. No rubbing issue other than that. I took the advice on another thread and heated up the plastic wheel well over at the rub points and simply pushed them back a little. Rubbing is now gone even at full lock. Very little difference in noise or ride in my opinion. Very happy with the decision.

Yes, air suspension and no rubbing issues. Real happy with the set up. Both pics in normal ride height

Nice stance Josh! I bet she really looks nice in Off-Road 1 too.
I have the same truck in Billet Silver. I have a set of 22"x10" Fuel wheels that I'm mounting Yokohama Geolander AT's in LT285/50R22. Hoping for no rub on that setup too!?

Had the new Yokohama Geolandar G015's mounted on my Fuel Siege wheels... Went with 285/50R22.
No rubs. Looks great. Drives fantastic!
Loved the handling of the Pirelli Scorpions on the OEM wheels but chewed through those racing tires in 30,000 miles. No warranty.
My old Toyos ATIII 35x12.5R22's were too big AND hydroplaned terribly in the Florida rains.
So therefore went with the Yokos.
I really liked the Continental Terrain Contacts for quiet, comfort and wet handling, but the biggest tire size was 285/45R22.
So, after much research and discussion here is the new look.
Thank you to all that helped and whoever suggested Tiresize.com. It was a lifesaver and killer app.

would it be lame to step down in width to go up in ratio? like a 275/50/22? I'm interested in more of a highway/all terrain tire... because lets face it 98% of time I'm on the road. But living in the south we do run into the occasional dirt/muddy/rutted road (this is coming from a guy that literally sank his wifes Chrysler Pacifica until its belly was sitting on the ground :ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO: had to get it winched out!!)

How are these tires working out after having them for a bit? Looking to get these and looking for insite. Thanks
They have been great, no rubbing issues at all, and have been confortable for daily driving. You feel the road a bit more being 10 ply but the truck is still very comfortable.
