Default Stock Tire Size For 97

What is the stock tire size for a 1997 1500 Club Cab? Either my tires are the wrong size or the VSS is out, because I notcied that in 50mph zones people are cussing me like mad and it sure doesn't feel like the truck is doing 50. The truck has 113,000 on it.

As mentioned, it should be on the sticker on the driver side door fame. It should list tire size, tire pressure, and weight ratings of the axles.

Thanks for the feedback. I have to doublecheck what I have on mine. Been busy using the truck to haul some VW Microbusses this past weekend for myself and a friend. I have the Ram for my VW hobby and so far I'm glad I purchased it. The odd part is that yesterday, while travelling 60mph, which felt slower than 60, my friend, who was following me, said I was spot on. Freaking wierd. It always feels like I am going slower than the posted limit if I drive at the posted limit.
