New tire time

[shadowless127]

So my tires are SHOT and starting to dry rot so it's time for some new rubber.

Looking at getting some 265/70/17 General Grabber HTS.

I got some questions though

How bad is the rub at full lock with stock height?
How off will my speedo be?
How will ride quality be effected?
How will my gas mileage be effected?
Will I have to adjust my aggressive driving style?

These tires are $523 shipped from TireRack.

Thx.

I went from 235/70R16 to 265/75R16 on my '02 and there's a very small rubbing on the right side only, my guess it depends on your suspension

I haven't noticed a change in ride quality and I haven't changed the way that I drive.
Just this week I filled the tank with the new tires so not sure on MPG yet...

You can get 305's on the back stk with a inch spacer so i think they will fit no problem
