Newbie here about to take delivery of my Base. I want to swap my wheels without adding a lift but I can't determine the maximum wheel/tire sizes, offsets, etc. I am guessing I can easily run 16 or 17" wheel but I don't know what size tire. For example, would a 285/75/16 tire fit OK? Do I have to check the ground clearance, and inside the fender dimensions to know before I buy? For example, would the 17x9 RTR fit a base or require a lift or be too wide (Base is a 7" stock wheel)?

I have seen the tire calculators for comparison but those numbers don't mean much to me if I don't understand the metric.

Thanks for any help!!
