Question about tires

Hey Guys,

Last week I put a good sized gash in one of my tires. I decided I want to get new and bigger tires. I would like to know what the biggest size tire I can fit on my factory rim. The truck was optioned with the snow plow package, so the front end has the stiff springs. I would like to put either 315-75-16's or 35x12x16's on. I was wondering if anybody was running these tires on their factory rims?

Brandon
