Default Will these rims fit my 2002 Dakaota?

Hi guys!! I have a 1998 Dakota sport with 15" rims and 31x10.5R15 tires. It also has front disk and 10x2.5 Drum rear brakes. Will these fit my 2002 Dakota with 11" Drums?? Both trucks are 4x4. Thanks for any help.

That's a very good question. You will have to try and see.

Well it's 30 degrees out here and I have a bad back so I figured it might be better to ask if they'd fit than to try it in an icy driveway just to find out they don't. SMH

AFAIK the 15 inch rims will not clear the 11 inch drums. I think you'll need 16s.
