Subject: Biggest tires on stock truck
IP: Logged

Message:
Hi,

Just curious if someone could help me out with this... I have a 2002 quad cab 4x4 with the stock Goodyear Wrangler RT/S 265/70r16's... I'd like to move up to bigger tires, but don't want to put in a lift kit (right now)... What are the biggest tires I can get on this truck? I really like the BFG AT/ko's....

Thanks,
Jon

Currently running Cooper Discover S/T 265/75 R16 and get a small amount of rubbing at half turn. Especially in reverse.

I gotta dump this ugly bumper/cover and get a REAL bumper.

Michael,

Grrr... thanks for the reply, although I guess it wasn't what I wanted to hear... Do you think 275/70r16 will rub? The width is ok, but I'd like to fill the wheel wells out a little more...

I fit 265/75 16s Bridgestone Duellar AT EVOC on my 2001 Dakota and got no rub and they actually look pretty mean on the truck

I'm curious about the same thing. I'd like to get a set of the BFG AT's but I'd like to get a tire that's a little bit wider. Not bigger diameter wise, just wider. Like a 295 or something. These will fit with no rub I assume?

Aaron

I was talking to a buddy of mine who has 1999 Dakota with 15" wheels, and he said he fit 31x10.5's on his with no trouble... the problem that now presents itself is how does 31x10.5 translate into 265/70r16 or whatever the numbers might be?

I'm running 31x11.5x16 Super Swamper LTBs with a torsion bar levelling and no rub, even with 4 adults in the truck. BFG AT 32x11.5x15 will fit with no rub. A friend of mine has them.

31/10.5 x 15 is the largest you can go. There may be some slight rubbing of the inside wall at the front of the frame when turning hard, but it should only be enough to wear rthe paint off...not cause damage. I couldn't even hear mine, just saw a shiny spot on the frame. Then I lifted it (Trailmaster suspension & 2" body lift) put Glassworks fenders on and now clear 33/10.5 x 15s. Have owned it since new and had the mods done for over 10 years now.
