Does anyone know if 31-10.50-15s will fit on stock 1994 Dodge B-250 van ? It is the lighter duty 3/4 Ron , with 5 lug wheels.

Don't know about a Dodge. I have a G20 Shorty with those all around on 8" wheels.

Cool, I was thinking they might as the van currently has 30-9.50-15 tires in factory steel wheels, so 31 SHOULD not be much of a stretch.

several years ago I saw that body style, not sure the year, nott sure of rim width or offset, but 31x10.5x 15's all 4 corners.

The owner said the fronts rubbed the inner wheel well at full lock, but he got used to it not turning the wheel all the way when maneuvering.

Yeah, a tire guy was willing to do a test fit for me, and with minor trimming, the full lock rub is not bad.

Perhaps with a coil spring spacer and a little more ride height it will not be an issue at all.

When I replaced my 7270 diameter springs with thicker moog 7272 my ride height was restored, but not raised

30x9.5x15s make my Speedo dead on accurate, where the 235-75-15s it always read fast.

Yeah, I “tested” the speedo against one of those “Your speed is________” radar things, and with the 30x9.50x15s that are on the van now, it was spot on. I saw a van like mine, done street van style, and it got me thinking. . . .again! LOL Now I can not decide how to build her.

His van had 245/60/15s front and 275/60/15s on the rear all mounted on what looked like American Racing Outlaw 1 wheels and I thought it looked great.

Decisions decisions decisions . . .
