Hey Jon,

I've been looking at putting some 31x10.5's on my Dak, & since we have the
same trucks, can
you tell me how the fit is with the 31x10.5's?
Do you have the stock rims?
Any body/suspension lifts?
Any idea what the overall diameter for the Generals are?
I'm looking at going with the BFG Radial AT/TA which have OD of 30.8 inches.

Your comments appreciated - I gotta quit f'ing around and get these things
on before the weather gets nasty.

Just returned from the tire shop with a bran spankin new set of 31x10.50
general grabbers. How do I figure up the tooth count for the new speedo
gear? Will my local dodge dealer have them = should he have them? It
looks like I should crank the t-bars to get about 0.5 inch lift for the
front end; should I worry about re-alignment? the fella that did the
alignment ( yea, I know I should cranked them before I put on the tires
WHOOPS) felt like I shouldn't worry about it too much, but unlike him I
don't want to write them another $450 check in a few months.
