New tires on truck, Sized a bit bigger on stock rims and susp

Hey everyone,
I just put some Dayton Timberline AT 2 on my truck today. They are 265/70-17 compared to the stock which are 265/65-17. I was wondering if anyone else had done this and if their was any negative effects? Thanks

 

Nice! Would you mind putting some pics up?

 

i am using the same size 265/70-17 on my truck. i find the speedo is dead on now.

 

Now I just need a new intake!

 

Same here.

 

What tires did you go with?

Did your acceleration or gas milage drop?

 

i have 265/70/17

no problems, looks more sexy

 

I haven't noticed a gas mileage difference since I haven't driven too much since I got them and i was offroading alot trying to test them. I think they might be rubbing though somewhere in the wheel wells. Especially if i go over a bump in a sharp turn. Other than that no big deal. Sits up higher than before. Cost about 680 for the tires, for the stock tires that came with it was about 780, so of course i went with the bigger and more aggressive looking since it was also cheaper.

 

i am using dunlop rover total terrian

no noticeable difference in gas milege or acceleration
