Hi all,

Just wanted to post a quick note to let all the tire shoppers out there know that the 255 70 16 fits very nicely on a 3rd gen with no rub. These tires are an inch taller than stock, plus the height of the new tread compared to my worn out tires :) I went with the Michelin Cross Terrain as my first set lasted over 66,000 miles. I hadn't seen anyone else posting about this size so I just wanted to put it out there.

that's the size I want to go with. My 235's seem close on the inside tire wall to rubbing, but it sounds like 255's will work. thanks!
