Is that tire size on a 15 or 16" wheel? If it is 16 - Crank your torsion bars and then go with a 1.5" shackle lift in the back and you can fit those. What engine, tranny, gear ratios you have?

If it is the 15 inch wheel size then it should fit stock.

You can go with a 32x11.50 on your wheels. That is wider than what I'm using but the same height. Just do the modest lift I mentioned.

if you going to run the stock steel rim which is a 15x6, then 235/75R15 is the largest tire. if it's the stock alloy rim which is a 15x7, then you can run a 31x10.50R15.

if you aftermarket rims, then you should check on the width of the rim. and go by this... (stock, no lift)
15x6 - 235/75R15
15x7, 15x8, or 15x10 - 31x10.50R15

you probably can fit a 32x11.50R15 but you'll rub some.

I ran 31x10.5x15s on 15x6 wheels for years. You do not need wider wheels to run 31x10.5s.
