Default bigger wheels and tires
I know someone out there must have already done this. I have an 02 2500 HD with the 8.1 502. I am looking to put bigger wheels and tires on it without a lift kit. I would love to lift it but that is not financially possible right now so don't respond if you are just going to say I would lift it. I don't mind a little bit of rubbing but would like to avoid it if possible. Now come on I know this has been done and I know someone out there wants to help out a fellow Chevy owner.

What size does it currently have? You can probably go 2" taller without problems.
