Had 305-75-16 nitto's on my truck and loved them.
Decided to go with 305-75-17's now I have sway.
Not sure if it is from the front or back or both.
Had a 2.5 inch leveling kit put on my truck years ago
but other than that it has the stock suspension.
I dont believe I had this problem with the 16's
But maybe I did and it is normal.... I dont know.
What can I do to eliminate the sway.
Bought a Bigger Fiver this year and I am really
concerned about the sway empty. Havent pulled the
new fiver with the new wheel combo yet.

sparky EVERYTHING is new in the last year.
Do they make rear sway bars for these trucks??

Yes , im surprised your truck didnt come with one. I believe a swaybar would help you out ,, but not positve it would cure ya.
Hopefully someone will chime in soon and further help you out !

That's wierd that you went up in rim size and now how the sway issue, I could understand if you went with 1 size larger tire like I did and the truck did not like the larger tire when towing. I do get some tread roll like now because the tires are brand new, and I'm using the BF All Terrian tire which has a really deep tread. It's just the rear swaying?? or the whole truck??? If it's the whole truck maybe the tread is rolling llike what I get. Just an idea:lookaround:

I stepped down from 37's to 35's on 18" wheels and what a difference. Sway is gone.

Did you by any chance step down to a load range D from an E or something like that?
