    This has probably been asked plenty of Times but will 265/75/r16's fit on my stock 2001 4x4 xtracab Sr5 trd? Will I need spacers or need to remove my mud flaps?

    No need for spacers or removing mudflaps. I run 265/70/R16 on mine and no issues whatsoever.

    I think he means he runs 265/75/16.

    You will be fine. It's won't rub.

    Another option that works is 245/75/16 which will be closer to the same height as your stock tire but a little narrower and lighter.

    Depending on which 265/75/16 you choose you might have a very slight rub on the fram rail.

    I have 265/75/16 Duratrac's on my truck with the stock 03 TRD wheels and they just "touch" the frame rail at full lock.

    Nothing to worry about as they touch a completely flay smooth piece of the frame and it's not going to hurt the frame or the tire. .

    I plan to install those exact tires before winter, JAGER, so I'm curious how you like your 265/75R16 Duratracs?

    (Apologies for the thread-jack, OP.)
