my 02 came stock with 265/70r16. look at your door jam there should be a label for stock size tires. this may help.

265/75/16's will work. If you want to go bigger tho you will have to crank your torsion bars.

Will the 265/75/16 work with no rubbing or lift? I'd like to run something like that in a general grabber all terrain

I thought the 4x2 was even lower? people are saying the 265/75/16 might rub a little bit on hard cornering.

If you are cornering that hard you are rolling over... Ill admit I used to push my dakota to its limits sometimes never had it rub one single time like that. My 31in bfg at's used to rub every so slightly at full lock. My 32's that were a size wider didnt rub that much.
