i,m getting ready to go get 315,s on stock 2002 wheels with 2'' leveling kit,les scwahb tires here in s.w washington said they have done a bunch of them.if you got this set up please post some pics.

 

What do you want to know?
As I understand it, with stock rims, you don't even need a leveling kit for clearance with 315/75's. Ask DodgeMan01. That's how his is set up. I guess the leveling kit will give you a little more clearance, not that you need it.

From what I have read, with the stock rims you will slightly rub on the lower control arms.

With aftermarket rims you may or may not rub, depending on you the rim width, offset and backspacing.

I personally want to go with 16x8s with 4" backspacing and a 2" leveling kit.

I have heard 10" wide rims will rub.

 

Ill post a pic tonight when i get home.I have 315 Cooper S/Ts and a 2" leveling kit.It looks great IMO.And it does ever so slightly rub on the lower control arms at full lock.

 

On my old 98 12'ver, I had the leveling kit with 305's and American 16X10's rims. No rubbing at all with plenty of room to throw on some 35's.

Just put on my new 315's yesterday and just like McDonalds, I"m lovin it!!

Good luck,

Hunter

P.S. I have a few pics in my photo gallery, but my rig is lifted 4.5"

 

You can check my gallary.
I have 33x12.50x16.6 with a 2" level kit put on by Les Schwab.
They did a fine job.

Heres one

 

Dodgeman01 runs 2" coil spacers (leveling kit) and 315/75/16 BFG AT/KO's on 16x8 American Racing Baja wheels. Those wheels have 4.5" of BS which you would think make the wheel's rub at full lock, but if they do its barely.

Now on the stock 02 wheels which are also 16x8 you are going to rub the control arms with 315" tires, but that's because the stock 02 wheels have like 6" of BS don't they?

 

Has anyone out there put bfg 315/17s on an 03' w/stock rims without a lift and if so did they rub at all and if how bad?

 

I've seen a bunch of pics of it done, but I think the leveling kit is needed, or if not, it looks a lot better IMO.

 

You'll probably get better answers posting in the 3 rd gen forums....

 

Seen a few on TDR that way, and haven't heard much complaining of rubbing.

 

Here's 315-75R16's on stock rims
