tire size clearance question

Are any of you running 15" wheels ?

If so how big of a tire can you go with a stock ride hight?


I was thinking about going from my 16's to 15's so I could get a better selection of tires. I think in most cases the 15's cost less too. My plan is to make the truck a little more off road friendly maybe with a 33x10.5x15.
The ideal set up I would like to do is a tire 33-35 tall ( If they clear ) but only 9" wide so they dig in better and have less rolling resistance to them.

31x10.50's are no big deal, worst case scenario crank the tbars a little bit and add a set of shackles for a $50 lift, but you're gonna have to do some serious work to stuff 33's in there

my truck came stock with 15's

there is no way you will fit anything bigger than a 31 or 32 10.5 with the stock height


I'm running 31x11.5 and I got a tiny bit of rub before trimming

to run the bigger tires you want you WILL need to get a lift

With the stock 15 inch rim with no lift the biggest tire you can fit is 31x10.50
