265**

Like 245 or 265 x 70 or 75. But 265 will rub on the pinch weld, but so can the 245 if it's an MT tire.( All you can do is just try it and see.)

I was thinking about a all terrain tire as I will probly not four week much but your think a 245 75 would be best to avoid rubbing?

Four wheeling *

 

[colorado76]

Yes

Ok thats easy enough really probly a little cheaper too, thank you! Also if it matters I have different wheels 16x8 with a 5 back spacing

265-70s will sit on the 8 inch wide wheels better than a 245-75

Does anyone make a 255 75? Maybe go for the in between of the 245 And 265.. Thanks for the help

Anything over a 245-75 you'll be looking at re-gearing anyways so unless you want to go that route 245-75 or 265-70s about it.

I'd stick with 245-75-16's
You'll get plenty of rub out of them with that lift you have...

True dat! Even with the 245/75 I am running thinking about re-gearing. However, no rubbing.

Especially for very steep grades and real off roading.

Just a note: Changed from 15x8 wheel to 15x7,surprising the difference for the better. Running 31-11.50-15 Super Swampers.
