I have 255/70 r16s on mine they fill up the fenders really good and have never scrubbed. Mine is at the shop right now getting a new set put on. I was well over due the old one were getting to ride really rough and slick.

soo your telling me that 265 75 16 wouldn't fit??
 






265/75/16 fits just fine. I did it. Twice. Someone on here has done 285/15/16's with wheel spacers.

No lift, no spacers, no problems.
 






At what psi did you inflate your tires? and where did you find the info for psi rating
 






PSI rating differs for each tire... it should say on the tire..
