not sure what size in inches 315s would be but a 33x12.50 will fit good under there and something 34" tall might work

this is on a 1500 correct?

315s are pretty close to a 35" tire....alot of guys actually run 315/75s on truck with 4-6" lifts...i doubt they would fit with out a true suspension lift. maybe with a body lift they wood.

you can fit 315's with ford keys, body lift, and a lot of cutting

NOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!

NEVER try to put a 16.5" tire on a 16" rim. a 33x12.50x16 will fit with some buldging
