what are the biggest tires you can fit on a stock 01 explorer sport. with 16 inch wheels. 255/70/16 come stock, so 265/70/16 shouldnt be a problem. will 265/75/16s fit stock, with torsion twist?

There are numerous threads about tire sizes and what will fit and what won't...

As for people fitting a 265/75R16 stock... well, I just don't see how that happened.

I had my 265's installed with a TT up front and they rubbed my tupperware pretty good (they fit the rear fine). I added a 2" BL and everything is nice and proportional with NO rub at all... plenty of pics in my photo gallery...
