Tire Size

Got an 01 Dodge Ram 1500 SLT Quad Cab short bed (standard), I was wondering whats that max size tire I could put on this truck without doing any modification, it currently has 245/75r16 like to go bigger and wider with no rubbing while turning or bouncing. It looks like it has alot more room.
:1zhelp:

If you have a 4wd the max tire size is
Stock height: 265/75R16 (this is the stock tire size).
Probably OK: 285/75R16, 235/85R16, 255/85R16, 32/11.50-16.5
With a 2-3" lift: 33/12.5-16.5, 315/75R16
With a 4" Lift: 35/12.5-16.5

I am currently running P285/75R16 and I rub at full lock on my control arms.

If you have 2wd then If you go with anything larger than a 31 x 9.5 x 16, you will have "rubbing" on your front tires when in tight turns.

Found info at http://dodgeram.info/tech/mods/tires/index.html

so I can run P305/70R16 with no problems include no rub

with that size tire you would need a 2" or 3" coil spacer to clear with no rubbing due to the width of the cross section.

okay than how about P265/75R16:smooch:

yes you can clear that tire size no problem. It was a factory optional tire size for an upgrade.

so 275/75R16 will more than likely rub also but not much being as the 285/75R16 wil rub and the 265/75R16 doesn't right.

I personally don't hear too much about 275/75R16 tire size being available. The most common sizes are the 265/75R16 and 285/75R16. But since my 285s don't rub too much I would say the 275s will fit no rub. They just may be more expensive then the 265s and 285s since it is not as a common size.

okay thanks for your input.

i have a 2000 1/2 ton 2 wd and i have 285/75 r16 i have no modifications and there is no rubing at all
