Will 32/11.5/15 Dunlop Mud Rovers fit on my '74 GMC 2wd?
 
My truck is a '74 GMC 1500 SuperCustom with heavy duty factory springs. Right now it has factory 15x6 wheels with 235/75/15 Desert Duellers and I would like to put some bigger tires and wheels on it. I want to get some 32/11.5/15 Dunlop Mud Rovers which are rather short at 31.3" inches tall and have those wrapped on some 15x8 Chevy rally wheels. My truck looks like it sits higher than a normal 1/2 ton 2wd and it looks like the 32's might fit. I need some new wheels and tires so within the next month I will be doing this. I could do some very slight fender trimming on the inside, but only very limited amounts.

Thanks,
Erik

how about the 31's?a bit cheaper,less chance of them rubbing the fenders during a turn and they would look better on the 15x8's with out trimming the fender which leaves less work for you.just my opinion.

You will have trouble with 32's hitting the fenders without cutting them. I think your max will be 31x10.5, which aren't 31" tall either.....

I ran 31 AT's on my '75 2wd w/ 15x8 wheels, I never rubbed, but it was close. I fit 33's on the back during a test (don't ask!) http://67-72chevytrucks.com/board/ubbhtml/wink.gif You may get by w/ a little lower fender trimming, but no promises.
