Largest Tire I Can Run??
Hey guys, I am wondering what the largest tire I can run is. I think I can get away with 31's on my stock 2wd 3/4 ton with no lift, but would I be able to squeeze a set of 33x10x16.5's on there and still be able to turn? If not, what's the largest tire that I can run on a 10x16.5 rim and be able to turn?
Thanks Benjamin.

Re: Largest Tire I Can Run??
yup 33/12.50s will be tight, try a 255/85/r16 (33x10.50x16) and mayyyyybbbee they will clear. the 235/85/r16 clear all our trucks fine (my 77 2wd with 16x5.5 wheels as well as all of dads 3/4 tons with 16x7 wheels)

Re: Largest Tire I Can Run??
Well, I can't run 16's, as I have 16.5's on my truck and the wheels I want are also 16.5's. So I would be able to fit a 33? Do they make a 255/85/r16.5?

Re: Largest Tire I Can Run??
You might look into getting some 16" wheels.. you don't find nearly as many tires for 16.5" wheels.

I've looked for others, but I can't find the wheels I want in 16's, I can only find 16.5's.
