315/70/17. Your tire would only be about .1 inches smaller so you will probably be rubbing as well. I would pick up a dremel with plastic cutting wheels from Lowe's and take it back when you're done =)

Hopefully you won't have to cut metal. Post back and let us know how it went for you.

Well got them on and everything went pretty smooth. I couldn't get any better pictures because it got dark on us.

It was rubbing at full lock so I took the drimel to it and cut about 2 inches up from the bottom of the wheel well. Right next to the outside of wheel on the back it still rubs but I'm not sure how to fix it just yet. It probably sounds a lot worse than it actually is but I still want to fix it. It only rubs at half lock in reverse too

From what it seems, I'm guessing I wouldn't be able to tuck 35s with a -12 offset?

Not without a decent amount of trimming unfortunately.

I feel like it would be a pretty good chuck of trimming, it would look better than a 33 I feel.
