Yep they should fit. 265/75/16 have an overall diameter of 31.65 inches.

You can run 31s without modification and 32s generally don't need much if any modification. You will be on the limit on full lock with clearance I would think.

Worse you might get is very close clearance to the edges of the wheelarch extensions at the front when on lock but it should clear. If not a small amount of work with a dremel will fix em.

And you'll be the coolest kid in town.

they'll be close for clearance... i've got 265 70 16 MTs and they're very close to the mudflap when turning.... even with a 2" lift

looked at fitting 285 75 16s but these would be too wide to clear the top ball joint and need spacers and a bit more lift to clear the arches when turning.

My 31x10.5s clear by about 1 1/2 inches so you are right it will be a close thing but it's only at the bottom of the front wheelarch extensions where they are attached to the bumper, remove those bits and it would be plain sailing.

Hehe, you're lucky, my standard 265/70R16s rub near the mud flap when braking and turning
