Bigger tires on stock rims (3500 DRW)

[DrJMG]

Apologies if that has already been covered here but I searched and couldn’t find it.

Just got a 2024 3500 Limited DRW. Already aware that the Nexens it came with will need to be changed out sooner rather than later. 235/80R17

Question is how much bigger a tire I can go with without causing any problems. Don’t want to change rims or do a lift.

Thanks!

Excellent, thanks!

After reading all that I may just stick with the OEM tire size even though I'd prefer if they filled the wheel wells better.

At some point I'm going to start haulng a large 5W and don't want to do anything that could compromise safety.

That’s about the same conclusion I came to. Only thing I am looking into now is what I will replace factory tires with. Don’t do much off-roading with a dually but would mind a nice improvement in looks/slippery condition traction/and similar wear characteristics to stock highway ride/wear.

You would be good with 255/80/17's. Don't have to worry about using spacers with that size either.
