None, they fit without problems.. I run 235/75/15’s and other than rubbing the mudflap a little there’s no problem

Pete_79 had a bit of an issue with the outrigger, but it depends on the tyre. How big it actually is, etc etc

Those tyres you’re going to buy off me will look like this at full compression on your rig... ;)

Just need to roll over the panel seams inside the wheel arches a bit. I trimmed the bottom corner of the stock bumper just to be sure everything cleared easily.

No issues with the outriggers until you step up to 30s...

Just to be clear I’m the “bloke on Facebook” and the question was “what is the biggest tyre that will fit a stock Sierra” to which the answer is *still* 215. Becuase 235’s touch the guards and bumper, and as has been pointed out, will foul if used with non standard wheels.

If the question had been asked the way it was asked here my answer on Fb would have been far more relevant.

I had the feeling that it might have be you
The reason I asked on here was after the info you had given on Facebook
