as long as you have a 15 inch rim on that truck, they'll work... look on your sidewall for your size, i wouldnt put it past me you have 215/70/15s. im guessing by looking at your pic, but go look on your sidewall, bigger tire however = off calibrated speedometer and your fuel mileage will suffer slightly, but 225 is a steal, depends on the tire and their treadlife.. and id go for all 4, imo mismatched tires is pretty crappy, i had to do it a few times, i hated it, plus the truck handled weird in the rain

winter tires are made from a very soft rubber compound, you're going to eat them up driving them on dry pavement.
