Message:
Has anybody successfully placed bigger tires on thier Dakotas w/o a lift? I want to go up to P265/75R 16, the factory is now using P265/70R 16. The P265/75R 16 would put me at about the same OD as a 32" tire. Anyboby tried running 32's or P265/75r 16's without a lift?

Thanks

I have a 98 Sport X cab 4x4 and before lift 32 rubbed when i went offroading. I now have a 5.5" Tuff Country lift and am running 35" with very very little or no rubbing.

The 265/75-16 are not as wide as a 32x11.50. I had them on my Z-71. Should not be an issue.

I currently have 265/75 MT mounted on 16" rims and they rub slightly but if you tighten up the torsion bar that will give you more clearance. Also a guy I work with has 32 X 11.50 on his 1999.
