We talking width of tire that will tuck or the tallest tire? With 4x4 owners and V8 luv owners, there are two different kinds of big tires. :)

I had 235/75R15 tires under the back of my 4x4 luv with zero lift, though I didn't run it much on the road. Bigger will fit, but if you offroad at all much bigger tires will rub with much of a bump/rock on one side. I managed to rub 195/75R14s (original stock size) on a stock 2WD once or twice, so anything will hit if you give it a enough effort.

If you are talking about width, I'm sure someone else will have an answer for you.

I had a 31x10.5 inch mudding tire on the back of my LUV at one point. Just to see how goofy it looked :lol: But they honestly did fit. No alterations or anything to the rear end, stock height, 2wd. 1981 model..
