Ok well I dont know what size rims will fit but to me it wont look that good with that big of wheel and that small of tire. Search google and look at other daks. I did a quick photo shop of my truck I just took the wheels off of our hemi(20in) and pasted it on my truck I think it looks horrible like that.

I know you didn't want opinions but you're getting mine anyway. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, AND for the LOVE of GOD NOOOO! If you want to go pimp out something go get an ugly *** '82 cutlass supreme but please don't ruin your dakota. So to answer you question 17" rims is the largest respectable size.
