I don't know what kind of tires you are looking at, but surely you could find some cheaper than a duramax.

I had 285/75/18 on my 05 2500hd 4x4. They rubbed in tight turns until i cranked the t bars, trimmed the bumper lip corners, and tightened up the fender liners. Looked nice. I can't remember the offset but it was pretty flush.
