I don't know why you can't find them. TireRack (online retailer) lists 43 different tires in this size for your truck, 2WD or 4WD.

SOURCE: tire sizes

Open the front drivers door... or the passenger side front door... there should be a sticker there indicating correct tire sizes as well as pressures.

SOURCE: is it ok to go from 235 70 r15 tires to 235 75 r15

Yes its ok, the 75 tires are a little taller. your speedometer will not read correct speed, you will actually be going faster than what it reads.

Testimonial: "Thanks for the info on the speed,i wasn't aware of that."

SOURCE: mixing tire sizes

You can replace, but not mix. All the tires on the car needs to be the same size for traction control and ABS system. Having two different size tires on the car will cause problems. Just keep them all at the same size P215/60R15 or P205/65R15 only.

SOURCE: I have 195/60/R15 tires on my car, can I replace

Yes you can, but NO you shouldn't. 65 profile tires will be taller, with a greater circumference, and narrower than recommended 60 profile tires.You would have to replace all 4 ,and expect some deterioration in handling. Furthermore, the speedometer readings will be off noticeably.

I have a 2005 nissan sentra. Tire size is 195/60 R15. I have the chance to get 2 195/65 R15 tires at a good price, and want to put them on the back, keeping the 195/60's on the front. Will this be OK? Some...

Hi!

195(width in mm)/60(sidewall height in % of width) R15(rim diameter)

This means, a 195/60 R15 rides lower than a 195/65 R15 tire. Imagine how it would look like when you put these different tire sizes on one car. It can be done but the car will be unbalanced both mechanically and aesthetically. Remember, your car was not designed for different front and rear tire sizes unlike some sports cars.

A 2005 model will most like come standard with ABS as with most cars produced year 2001 onwards.
Just buy 1 tire size for your car. If you wish to change to another tire size, change all the tires.

Good luck!

What the best tire size for a 1996 dodge dakota truck rear wheel drive

Should be a sticker on the driver's door or door jamb, with tire size and recommended pressure. Discount Tire's web site calls for either a 215/75R15 or 235/75R15. This assumes you have the original sized wheels on it. If you basically using it as a car, not carrying loads, towing, or driving on dirt roads, the 215s should be OK, otherwise I'd go with the 235s. What size do you have now?

What size tires a jimmy needs?

Owners manual has the answer. Also on either the door column or inside the fuel door should be a list of original and options tire sizes. Look at the present tires. They are all marked as to their rim size, and dimensions. Probably LT235/75 R15 if they are original now.
