Title: Biggest tires on stock 2wd
Post by: garthbrooks on February 11, 2008, 07:21:11 pm

Hey guys, I can get some 31x10.5 -15 BFG Mud Terrains for CHEAP.  I was just wondering if they will fit on a stock 2wd 1986 Gmc Sierra. I was told by several tire places in my area that they will fit easily. However with 22 years of weight on the springs it may sag a little bit.  I just wanted to make sure they will fit with out rubbing. I'm not worried about sitting still so much as I am hitting bumps and hard turns.  Will they at least fit on the back?  If not I will buy them to just resale them.  Thanks!

They'll fit with a tight squeeze just be aware they'll wear the idler arm and pitman arm even faster than they already do

They should fit on the back without a problem. I have some off brand mud tires that size on some wagon wheels for my 2wd. they make the back sit up and give it a little rake. im a sucker for a ride with a rake
