Just got a 95 4x4 6.5 turbo 2500 6 hole rims. Will 285/75/16 tires fit on stock truck or do I have to lift it. It has 265's on it now. Thanks for the help cudaaa

I had to lift my 95 I also have 6 bolt wheels that came factory with 245's, turn your wheels 'til you are the closest you get to the rear of the front fender wells and measure how much room you have... I added 2 inch suspension blocks in the rear and tightened up my torsion bars to level the truck...

Phil what did that do to the ride when you tightend the torsion bars? Thanks for the help cudaaa

Tightening the torsion bars will give you a rougher ride... but my truck sits the same height as a dodge and is still smoother....
