Yeah they will fit, im pretty sure that they are 31"+ from the factory, but I could be wrong. I have 32" tires on mine now. They fit on the truck with stock ride height. 265/75 is a good size, its a tad under 32" i think.

I'm thinking of putting on a 2" leveling kit and trying to get 285's on, I think they would be pretty big tires, my dad has 275's on 20's on his Ram and they look big, his Ram also dwarf's my Dak...

anyone level their Dak and put on 275 or 285s without any rubbing, or do u have to do some trimming?

I've been torn on this subject for months now and I still can't decide what to run. No matter what, the tires will have to stay on the stock rims since I can't afford both. Like Monkey said, I think 265's would look good enough without modding, but I haven't seen one with them mounted. Monkey, do you still have your front and side pics of your truck? If so, can you repost them please, since you are running the closest to that size, or anyone else. Once I get this solved then I still have to pick which tire company!! Anyone running the Uniroyal Liberator A/T's or the General Grabber AT2's? I think that's what I'll be going with. Thanks!!

285's wont fit without a 3" body lift! i have a 3" lift + leveling kit and 33's just fit (rub on full crank due to backspacing of my rims)
