You should be able to run any size tire, as long as it is DOT approved for the highway.

Not really. The laws do not pertain to the tires themselves. Common laws set the max. width of the vehicle with tires(8.5'), height of the lights(43" in FL I think), max height of the vehicle(13.5'), miata bar height. Check with your local highway patrol, they should be able to point you to your states statues that define all of that.

I know lift laws dont apply to the tires themselves. He already found the lift laws, but was asking about tire sizes. As long as the vehicle is within the lift laws, he can run any tire that is DOT approved for highway use.
