You can run 315's on stock suspension, I did it, no rub other that the odd occasion on the lower control arm on the driver side only. This was dependant on tire width and agressivness of the grip, not the height of the tire.

But he asked what size tire he could run w/o mods. You said 315s. Lots and Lots and Lots of guys on here have put 315s on their stock trucks and the tires rub. (ask Dodgezilla who went back to 285s).

I suggested he look at a leveling kit. That MAY solve the problem with minimal modification and allow the use of 315s without rubbing. Personally, I don't know.

So do the 315's rub or not on a STOCK truck? You say no. Everybody else says yes. Personally, I don't know.

I'm not arguing with you, just stating facts based on actual experience... not what other people have told me.
