biggest tire size?

[H3_VX]

Stock '01 tires were 245/60/18, which is roughly 29.57 x 9.65. As Riff already mentioned the stock rims are 7" wide.

I think I may have just found a couple more options I might consider.

Falken WildPeak AT P265/60/18 (30.6x10.7)
Hankook Dynapro ATM 255/60/18 (30x10.2)
Hankook Dynapro ATM 265/60/18 (30.5x10.7)
Hankook Dynapro ATM 265/65/18 (31.5x10.7)

I don't think any of these should need trimming or torsion bar adjustment..........

Also, can anyone tell me what the biggest tire size that would fit in the spare swingate would be? Would any of the above sizes fit?

So, I am in the exact same spot. I've been doing research for hours now, reading and re-reading this thread, checking out some of the setups in the rims-n-rubber thread.

Unfortunately, especially in the wheels / tires combination thread, it seems like there is some conflicting information about what diameter will required a shave on the cladding.

This might be a basic misunderstanding on my part, but I am primarily looking at the diameter as the bottleneck for what combination you can have. By plugging some numbers into the Tire Size Calculator, I found:

285/55-18 -- 30.3 inch diameter
275/65-18 -- 32.1 inch diameter
265/65-18 -- 31.6 inch diameter

By making a few notes from the other thread, it seems that around 32 inches in diameter is where you start to need to make adjustments to the cladding.

I believe someone earlier in this thread indicated that 275/65-18 should work, and I just wanted to double check. I am really hoping that the BFGoodrich All-Terrain T/A KO 265/65-18 will be a good fit (I currently have 18 inch American Racing wheels from the prior owner).

Any additional insight is much appreciated!
