well you can fit 235/75 15's on it with no problem and 30's arent much bigger...i think the rubbing would depend on what kind of tires they are..and tread..bfg all-terrains might rub, regular tires shouldnt

I have 31x10.5's on my 1990 dak 4x4. The only rubbing i know of is as i start to turn, they rub against the mud flaps. I dont know about i sharp turn. I'd have to listen to see if there is any noise while doing one.

As long as you have the stock rims. Which're about 6.5in deep. They should not rub.

As long as your truck is 6 lug it will work. The Viper, Dakota and Durango bolt patterns are all 6x4.5. I have a set of Durango rims for Winter storage.
