Default 36 in tire

Im looking at getting some new tires and have been researching a bunch. What are there for 36 in tires for a 16 in rim besides swampers? I dont really wanna go with a 17 or 18 in rim. thanks for any help.

a 36 inch tire is not a common tire size so not very many people make it and if you do find someone who makes it, its going to cost more. your best bet would be a 35 or move up to a 37 if you can....

NO info about the truck as usual, but if you have 3:55 gears, good luck with that big of an oversize tire.

I'd either stay with a 35 or upgrade to 37s if you can fit them.
Maybe a 4:56 gears kit in the future for ya...
My truck is due for new tires.
If i get a leveling kit I can fit 32s an thats what I am looking to get is some 32" bf goodrich a/t's...

But good luck finding a new set of treads!

01 half ton 3 in body lift, 2.5 in leveling kit, add a leaf in the rear. Plenty of room zman and gears are in the budget. Anyone heard anything good about the interco ss-m16's?

Noisy, but when offroad they clean really well when in mud...
Won't last a long time if you do a lot of asphalt driving...

I have a 2 inch leveling kit and im clearing 35´s on a 15 inch wheel with the only rub happening at full extensions to either side in reverse. 36´s like was said before are a weird size go with a 35 or a 37.
