It will be either 33 or 34 I don't wanna completly kill my MPGs. Sorry I don't know the size conversion to 295 and what not

I remember it from looking at then online. But you can google tire size calculator and it can tell you.

My torsion bars are cranked all the way. I haven't had any serious problems. Just a stiffer ride. I run 265s but imma go up to 33x12.50s

If I regear I will be going 4.10s with 33s but I'm thinking about going 4.56 gears with 35s if they fit

I just did the math and 35s come out to a little over a 4.10 gear
