Default Largest size tire on stock suspension?
I'm needing some new tires for my wife's 01 PSD (4x4). I'd like to run the 305 65 18 BFG ATKO's but am not sure if they will fit. Anyone got any experience running this size tire on the stock suspension?

I'm going with the same Jesse James Lawless Black wheels as I've got on my 04 Dodge Cummins. Plenty of clearance, so rubbing on the inside won't be an issue. I'm worried about the increased height of the tires.....

You will be fine. Might have to trim the front lower edge of the bumper but...
