Default Durango - Wheel/Tire Suggestions

Hey guys,

New Durango owner here. Just got the 2005 model and I'm looking to upgrade the tires and rims. I'm considering a set of 20" rims with some big tires, possibly as big as 235/60/20, but I'm not that sure. I haven't seen too many Durangos with tires that big and I'm wondering if anyone has suggestions and/or pics of Durangos with big tires. I saw one pic from an auto show, Durango Show Pic, and it makes the truck look awesome. I'm not even sure if the sizes i mentioned are what this truck has, but I'm new to this and looking for some advice.

Thanks

I think the 'rango in the pic has some sort of spacer to make the wheel stand out more, As for the sizes,I would check your local tire store, ask if they have the size you're looking for and if you could borrow it for just a minute, chances are, they'll let you line the new tire up next to your current ones to note any size differences. while you're there, measure the new tire and check clearances. you don't want your new tire you rub itself to bits

You can fit 20's on your Durango with no problem. I have the 1st generation Durango with 305/40/R22's on it and I have no problems with rubbing at all. The 2nd generation Durangos have a bigger wheel well on them. Also, 235's are not really big at all, I mean if you wanted to go that thick with a 60 series tire, I guess the sidewall could be classified as big but width wise that ain't shi*. Heck, my R/T came with 275 series STOCK.
