I thought so too ya. Seen specs on 225 too on line etc. most likely able to. Put those but speedometer bd off Want to make sure I got the rg tire size so Speedo isn’t off.

235/75-15.

If if bd a horse race I’d bet on those. I seen specs of 225. Too. I wanted that lower look like it’s got rg now Yhere is 215 in there now. Bought it like that. I like that lower stance though , instead of the higher tire like 235.

Any thing less than the original tire width is getting pretty skinny. Too narrow to begin with, IMO.
That smaller footprint can be detrimental during stopping & cornering.
Especially on these trucks.
They don't stop all that well to begin with.
Stock, they handle like...a truck. They ain't no sports car.
Throw a bit of a load in the box with those skinnies, add in a panic stop, on a corner, at freeway speeds, and you'll be wishing you'd donned the 'Depends' that morning.

Ok. You mean width right. No less. So how about the height ? Thx for reply though. Helpful

If the door tags are missing the RPO codes on glove door identify what factory originally installed.
With a tire sizing application or chart. You can mix and match, profile ( aspect) with width to get the diameter and footprint you want.
The 245 looks to narrow for my K2500.
I have 275/ 70 / 16. Tire width looks correct. Speedometer is 1.5 slower than actual GPS ground speed. I can live with that. Good luck.
