Message:
I am looking at putting 17 inch wheels on my Dak and am curious about how wide they need to be to fit the tires I want to run. The sizes I was looking at were 245/45/17 for the front and 255/50/17 for the rear. Also do you think there will be any steering or suspension problems with these sizes on a gen 1 dakota??
Thanks

I have 245/45/17 on my r/t rims they are very low profile, and look great, but i would suggest some a little wider on these rims. I was told that a 255/40/17 would have the same size sidewall, but be a little wider.
