Biggest size tire

What is the biggest tire size you can fit on stock suspension and on the 15" rims?

Re: Biggest size tire

2 wheel drive or 4X4?
how wide a 15 inch rim you talking?
You want big as in tall, or big as in wide, or do you want both?

Re: Biggest size tire

Short answer. 33" -- tight - doable, but tight -- might rub some at full turn and big bumps. 31" will fit with no rubbing.

Good enough?

Sorry guys this is 2wd lwb.

somewhat wide and tall would be nice. However if 31" will fit that will be great!

Re: Biggest size tire

i believe the widest you can fit with a factory coil is 17" wide or 18" wide, someone will correct me if i'm wrong. But yes, 31" tall tires will fit with no issues
