It aggravates me so bad that it leans! Ill have to look into the leafs soon. Do you think 285s would rub with 4.5 bs? I know nothing about bs lol.

4.5" bs w/ 285s shouldn't rub since your truck is leveled, I'd be a little skeptical if the rims had a 4" bs though.

Here's a diagram that kinda explains the difference of bs and offset:

Oh and also i was wondering do you have any pictures of how you mounted your light bar on the grille guard?

I don't, but I can get you a pic of it tomorrow.

Thank you for the chart, I already knew about offset but nothing about back spacing lol. It did help though! That would be great I’d really appreciate if you would get some for me!

Not a problem!

Just went out and took one, there are two mounts total on the grille guard that look like this:

I run Aluminum stock wheels with 265/75/16's on coopers Discoveries ,they make my truck sit a little higher,but these are kinda wheels my truck came with,I run on and off road a lot,so it works fine for me.
I drive a old rusted 92 chevy ,silverado,ext cab ,for the price of truck,the tires cost more,but what I do are worth it.

I bought 305/70/16 and mounted those on the American Racing 16x8. 4wheel parts guy was wondering how they fit on the truck without being lifted at the time. Only issue i had was that the tire rubbed just a wee bit on the bottom corner of the black valance. Then eventually i got the 4 inch lift. I would like to go to this stock chevy rim, but my tires are no where near being used up. bought pro comps in 2016 still look new, i need to put more miles on the truck. Truck looks like the rear squats but it was measured and its that one wheel well is bigger than the other.
