  • Tyre size change

    Folks,

    In the real world will changing the tyres on my 3rd Gen 3.0l standard truck from
    265/70R16 to 265/76/R16 make a lot of difference apart from an actual speed 3.3% faster than the speedo shows.

    Will it cause and damage or problems ?

    Thankk you and best regards.

    As long as all four tyres are the same size, it'll be fine.

      Perfect cheers

      It widens the choice a bit with 265/75/R16

      Thank you

        285/75x16 will look better stil or 305/70x16.
        Old enough to know better but then again.....

          I changed from 265/70/16s to 265/75/16s on a previous Gen 3. The extra tyre circumference corrected the speedo to pretty much spot on at 70mph.
          The front tyres get a bit close to the arch liners if turning at full lock on uneven ground and can rub slightly.
