Default biggest tires

hey all... i'm new to the forum and was wondering... What's the biggest size tire you can squeeze into a 1500 sport without a lift? i'm not good at the tire game... and am looking at fireston destination A/Ts... are they any good? people on tire rack seem to like them... give me input either way, please...

Welcome to the forum! your question actually depends on more variables than just the tire iteself. The biggest of those is the backspacing of the rim. Are you changing out the wheels as well, or just on the factory stuff? Another thing you can try is the search feature on the site. It's kind of iffy if you'll get much because it is such a common question, but spend some time looking around for a bit and you should get a pretty good idea. I don't have the off-road package and I fit 33's w/ no problem on some factory wheels from a 00 off-road. good luck.

welcome. go to your profile page and fill out your signature so people know what your truck is. assuming yours is 4wd with 16in wheels, 285/75-16 is as big as i would recommend without lift and gear change. i think these are 33". mine are just AT's on stock wheels.
