1998 dodge ram 1500 5.9 4x4 laramie
im currently running i lt285/75r16s on my truck, they rub at max turn as is, and i would really like to go to probably 315s or 325s what would be some suggestions for the cheapest way to be able to fit some bigger tires on this bad boy, ive considered spacing out the tires, but my intentions are mudding so im not too sure on how safe that is, if i was to set my max turn lower, how much would i prevent me from turning?

No one can help you if they don't have all the pertinent info about your truck. What lift is in it, what rims are on it, what gears are in it and so on.
A 315/75r16 tire will not fit on a stock rim so new rims are in order. Going to that big of a tire means you should re-gear your truck, and you should have a 5" lift on the truck so things will have clearance.
I just saw a post with a 5" lift for under $1000 at topgun http://www.topguncustomz.com/Store/G...view=251828510
add another $1000-$2000 for gears and install
add another $1000 for tires and rims
There are lot's of threads on lifts, how to lift and " I wanna".

A 315/75r16 tire needs a 8" wide rim, stock rims are 7". While they might physically fit on the 7" rim it is not the right way to do things. If you think I am wrong go check out some tire fitments charts. Specifications are there for a reason.
