any responses? i believe i can run 295 wide max now what about hieght, will 28's fit, what do you recomend?

what gear are you using? This will have an effect on what rpm you run at the big end too....but I think you should be able to fit a 295, not too sure on a 28" though, backspacing of your rims may have an effect as well...

i plan on 4:10 or 4:30 and ill reply with the backspacing on the tires

5.5 backpacing

I "think" depending on what width rim you use that the 5.5 would be ok, I know on my 18's the back spacing is 24 mm...which is around 6 inches I "think", with 10.5 wide I would think you'd want to go with a 6.5 BS...

of course I am NO tire/wheel expert...
YMMV
lol

Do you have drum brakes or disc brakes on the rear. What size wheel? 15x8, 15x10....... Do you have lowering springs?
