    is your truck dropped?

    305/40s are what usually are recommended for 22's with a stock height truck. After a drop, 285/35 or 265/35 are the most common sizes to go with, ill be going with 285/40's for my 08 sierra on a 4/7 drop

    hhmmm..
    yours is an 06? those are a few inches lower than the NNBS trucks..... so I might say on stock height you might wanna go with the 285/40R22
    heres what mine looked like @ stock height with the 305/40R22



    as you can see... it still had quite a bit of fender gap...
    so id say your 06 should fit what my 4/7 dropped truck fits. 285/40
