What a bunch of knobs.
31x10.5/15 is the biggest without lifting or cutting.

FFS is right. 31X10.5X15 is the largest that can be put on without modification. Even then, you'll need 15X8 wheels (you have 15X6 now if your wheels are stock, and the 31 tire is unsafe for that wheel). You'll need to trim one of the brake caliper bolts on both sides about 1/4 inch so it won't cut into the wheel, and you may need to trim just a little off your air dam. I've done it and it works OK. ('95 4X4) Now have 17" chrome R/T wheels with 275X60X17, which are about 1" lower than the 31s. Good luck.
