Good luck even fitting 32s on a stock height Dak unless you have aftermarket
rims. I have a 3 inch bodylift and I couldn't even go 32s.... had to stick with
31s. Which still rub the frame on my stock rims, even though they are the
factory size tire. Only way I could fit 33s was to get new rims with more
offset and trim the fenders. And they wouldn't go 32s cuz they said they would
rub the frame too much.
