I have 33x12.50x15 on my 02 4x4 quad cab dak and the only thing that I don't like about the wider tires is you have to wash your truck every other day. but haven't noticed any chips in the paint from rocks or any other foreign objects.

I have 31x10.5x15 on my 01 QC 4x4, but the rims only have 3" of backspacking, causing the tires to stick out quite a bit...even past the stock fender flares.
I've been running these tires for 6 months now and can't find a single mark on the paint. Still, I'm getting mud flaps to keep the goop from hitting the bottom of the front doors...they should arrive in just a couple days. Ran over a freshly painted road stripe one day and sprayed white paint all over the bottom of my passenger side door...my truck is dark garnet red...white really contrasts with it.
My tires won't rub on the frame, but I had to trim the bumper valence so I could get the tires to clear it when at full-turn. Must be the small backspacing that caused that.
Anyway, good luck!
