3rd Gen tyre Dilema?

[smiffy]

Was told you can fit 265 75 16's( 31.6") on a standard truck,but may rub while off roading.

My truck seems to be lifted 2" at rear and about 1.5" at front compared to standard trucks,so would i be able to go upto 285 75 16(32.8") with this lift?

No off roading planned but might throw on a body lift at some point in the future.

Cheers.

I have 32" tyres on my 3rd gen with a 2.5 inch lift & they dont rub at all. BUT just about.
I would say 32.8" would rub if you went off road with your lift. I think you said before that your 3rd gen was for the road only so you'd probably be ok?
You could always get a cheap body-lift it they did rub.

Wouldn't expect it to be a problem.. It's a tiny increase in size..


Might need the odd spot of trimming here an there but it'll be worth it!

Stop being a poof and get on with it.

I am pretty sure I am running 265/80/16 MT's with my 2" lift I will check and get back to you, no rubbing though!

[Smego2]

Just checked (I braved the cold and the snow to walk ALL the way across the frozen wastes that is the drive in my dressing gown)

Mine are 265/75/R16's so these will fit with a 2" lift at least.

BF Goodrich btw.

rubbed badly when the truck was standard EVEN in normal driving under braking!

on my standard height 3rd gen (although it's got 20% stiffer milner springs all round), I'm running greenaway machos' 267/75 R16's with no rubbing and no trimming needed.

nice & interesting in the snow at the minute - another reason to smile

merry xmas
