Hi, I just bought a 1998 Dodge ram 1500 4x4, ext. cab. It needs new tires and the ones that are on it are pretty small. What are the biggest tires I can fit on this without any rubbing. The suspension is completely stock.

Thanks for the help!

I have an '01 Ram 2500 4x4 with 285-75R16, 33" and they fill the wheel wells fully and do not touch.

Dude, i ran 35X12.5 on my ram 1500 and all i had to do was turn my stearing bumb stops out a bit to keep the tires from hitting the radius arms when i turned sharp. Right now i'm running 37X12.5 MTRs on my ram but i also have a 5.5 inch fab tech lift with 4:56 gears. I love it!!!

I have a 99' Ram 2500, and I have P295/75/16 BFG AT KO(33.4") with a little rubbing in turns. I got a 2" skyjacker suspension lift so I could run 33" Super Swampers (2nd set) and chains with my BFG's. You should be ok with the 285/75/16's, but you might run into trouble if you put chains on the front.
