Default Need help on tires

I want to know what is the biggest tire i can run on my stock 16" wheels without any mods(leveling, lift or anything). I just want an aggressive looking tire. thinking about the goodyear dura-tracs 315-75-16 will these fit. May level it after i get these tires, but dont want to loose my ride, cause right now it is great, and this is my everyday ride. If i do level are the shock and bump stop mods required?

The larger issue is what will you loose with respect to the power and gearing with that much rubber. I know a LOT of people choose to run large tires, but don't forget that the I5 is limited in it's ability.

If you have an Alpha then you are probably fine.

Default Didn't really think about that

the I5 is what i have, but I am sure others with the I5 are running the larger tires also. Thanks though that is something to keep in mind.

i have 315 75 R16 duratracs and they fit perfectly, didnt have to get a lift or mess with the torsion keys. i dont really have any real power issues so far but it can never hurt to mod the engine.
