I have a 2001 dodge ram 5.2 sport I’m looking to put some bigger tires on there and trying to figure out the rim size anyone know?

On my 1998 Ram 1500 5.2 2WD, I have 16 inch stock rims. I put 265/75/16 BFG KO2's on there. They make they truck look extremely nice and beefy.

I also looked online and goodyear shows 16 inch tires as being oem size on your model. Also
on tire you'll see your tire size (***/**/**). Those last 2 digits on the right are the rim size. (Tire and rim size correspond).

my 2001 has 16 inch wheels and 265/75r16 BFG ATs, same as above. Mine is a 5-speed 5.2L, and I wouldn’t go bigger due to fear of performance loss. If you do go bigger, pay close attention to tire weight, it can vary substantially by brand across a given size.
