Um...I would take a wild guess on about 30's but that may be a bit big. Another thing that you may want to take into concideration is the tire with, you dont want the tire rubbing on the fender-well

I've got a 2000 4x2 Sport v-6. Currently, i'm running LT235/75/R15s, and i have upgraded to the 15x8 optional SLT rims. These dont rub at all, and i have heard ya can fit 30x9.50s(which are a tad wider if memory serves?) with rubbing only when ya turn lock to lock, or like flex the suspension a lot.
I know my LT235s gave me more clearance than stock, and im very happy with the look/performance.

I have a 2000 4x2 V-6 with the sport plus package. The BFG Radial Long Trail T/A 30 x 9.50 fit fine on my 15 x 8 rims. Haven't noticed any rubbing at all. Truck rides and handles great. Much better in the rain than the original Goodyears and have a 60,000 mile tread rating. Sits almost an inch higher. Did have to get the pinion factor reprogrammed to 235/75-15 to reduce speedo error from new tire size. Was up to 5 mph off. Now within 2 mph at highway speeds. The judge accepted that and let me off with a defective speedo fine. :)
