hey all,
i'm ordering my new 2001 dak quad 4 x 2 V8 next week. i want a 4 x 4 look but don't want to lift (maybe later). can i fit the stock 4 x 4 tires on my truck without rubbing? what is the largest tire (height/width) i can fit without rubbing? i searched through the archives but i'm still confused (new to this!) and would appreciate any help.
thanks much,
yvonne

My 01 Quad 2wd with tire and handling package came with Goodyear Eagle LS's that figure out to be about 29X10ish on 16's . 30X10's should fit with out breaking a sweat by my not so calibrated eye, assuming you can get the correct back spacing on a 15x8 inch rim. I haven't looked for bigger tires in the 16's.There might be enough room for 31's if you don't actually want to test your full suspension travel ;). One of the many 4x4 owners may be able to verify this but I seem to remember 31x10 1/2 on 15's coming stock on them on the 'em. Looks to be enough room on my truck to run 'em.

thanks for the response mriswith. i'm getting the tire handling package too. so, does your dak look good with the 29's...does it look beefy at all?

I love the stance. The tires look positively massive on it. I got the black Sport so the wheels really stand out. Seeing from the tail end (as most people on the local hiways see it ;) the rubber looks WIDE ! My 4.7/auto drive train with the 3.92 limited slip rear end can tear up the Goodyear eagles. They grip real well but I can get the rear end sliding around with out too much trouble. Hope you like yours as half as much as I do mine.
