Default aftermarket wheels and tires on MEGACAB ONLY

I was under the impression that 305 were as big as I could fit but when using a conversion calculator I find that not all 305's are the same height and learned that aspect ratio affects total tire diameter.

What is the largest tire on stock rims that I will be able to fit under my beast without sacrificing turning due to rubbing of the tires on the frame.

I was looking at Cooper tires and Nitto and found a 315 that is just under 35"

What is the rim width on stock wheels? as I think this will somewhat dictate what tires I can choose.


Thanks,



2013 MERCEDES BENZ SL-CLASS

Hello and welcome to DF! Please post some detai8ls about your vehicle. Year, engine size, etc. That way we can move this post to the correct section for you to get an answer. This section is not for technical questions of this nature.

Moved to the 3rd gen section where you should get some replies.
Like mentioned above, it will be much easier to answer your questions if you provide us with the truck info such as year, model, etc.

I have nitto terra grappler 305/70r17's and they are 34" tall by 12.5" wide. They are also E rated 10 ply to help hold the weight of a 2500.
