the dealer can program a "special" tire size for you. you need to tell them
the revolutions at 45mph. when i changed my tire size to 235/75R15, they
had to do this. be warned, the lowest number they can go on 98 4x2 trucks
is 723. my current tires are 728.

Very narrow parameters. Only OEM tire heights. Anything else, you're
stuck.
