32x11.5's on 15" rims , 235/85's on 16" rims - no mod's necessary. BFG AT's I believe (or another tire manufacturer).

Hmm

The 235 /85 are only 9.5 " wide approx and 31.5 High
the 265/70/16 are 10.5 wide and about 31 High

i have either 265/70/16 or 265/75/16 on my stock durango and the only time I have to worry about rubbing is if I hit a bump with the wheels cranked. Other than that, you wont rub at all :biggthump

Thanks for the replies. Looks like the biggest would be 32", which is pretty nice. I think I'll throw some 31" BFG AT T/A KO on the truck. I was looking at discount tire, and they have two tires in that size:
1) 31-1050R-15C1 109S W ($116)
2) 31-1050R-15/C1 RWL ($127)

What's the difference? Their website gives the exact same stats.

I have 285x75x16 on mine. Bridgestone Revo Dueler A/T's. I cranked the front up and did a little wheel well trimming to get them to not rub. All is fine with them now. I just got my shackles in the mail so baby is about to go up another 2 inches.
