A little better not enough to matter imo ... but I don't know if the price is any differnt between the two but the 255s are taller and skinnier

 

[Gregorh17]

the price is only like 10 dollar difference per tire. nothing too bad. But my main concern is the tire rubbing. Think if i went with a 265 70R16? instead of the 75R16? i wouldnt have rubbing on the inside of the tire?

 

[armysoldier30263]

Isn't the 70/75 the height of the tire? If so you would need a 255 because that would be a narrower tire

im not good with tires sizes...thats why i asked haha. But i think you're right. So i would go 255 75R16? Anyone who knows please help!!

255-75/16 is a 31" tire and will work fine, 265-75/16 is 31.5" and the largest oversize that won't rub. That info is widely available in other threads, no need to derail this one!

I've never been a fan of the completely black look, but I'm ready for the president to step out of that. Nice.

Locker install progress!

Tomorrow the newly regeared and aussie-locked diff goes into the truck Writeup will be posted this weekend.

It's been a great learning experience. Still have to swap in the new front axle before I can drive it but it shouldn't take as long as the rear has taken. I am more familiar with the front suspension and in a lot of ways it will be easier to work on than the rear. Hope to have the truck back up and running by saturday night.
