265/70/16 is what I have on mine. If you have an RT or are otherwise lowered, I think a 255/50/17 is what most run.

hey no its not lowered if anything id want to get higher but for the suspension and all that its just stock, its a SLT. id love to get a lift kit, but every one i find online is like $700 on top of the purchase price just for shipping, do you think 31x10.50R15 would fit without rub ?

Is it 2wd or 4x4? I have 31x10.50x15s on my 98 4x4 with stock wheels and the torsion bars cranked and the fit fine.
