255/85/16 is a 33" tall super skinny .
235/85/16 is the 31.3" or so tall .
215/85/16 is the shorty .

and any DRW that needs a spacer you should run the spacer with a hub centric ring built in to it to center the outer DRW rim . the DRW rims are HUB centered and NOT lug nut centered . if you move the outer wheel out you move it off the hub face that centers the rim up .

also if you have the narrow c&c rear the tire cant be to much fatter or it will rub the leaf spring pack . my pics later will show how close .

i got pics of the 255/85/16 on my old truck i will post later when i get home .
