Default tires

I have a 99 dakota sport 4x4, I have a 3" lift on it and want to up grade the tires. Right now I have 31x10x15, I want to get 33x12x15. Will this fit?

This question comes up all the time 32x11.5 should fit on stock but may rub a bit may have to cut the plastic out...Yea what imnothot02 said you will need some offset rims for the 33's but would still rub probably.

Will it rub all the time or only when making sharp turns? With the 32x11.5.

Because they do not have the correct offset. When ever you turn, you will be hitting the frame. Do a search on this topic and you will find everything you need to know about it.
