265/70 versus 265/75 size difference. BFG AT's With pics!

you can get black steelies on many sites 4wheeparts.com example for like 60 a rim. 16X8 and have a little off set for a nice stance and you can leave the suspension. That is what i might do. Maybe a level spacer and it will look nice

 

So running 265/75/16 on stock (not lifted) doesnt cause any problems at all?

 

From what I have read, no!

I will hopefully get these put on this week!

 

Please let me know if you experience any problems as I'm really thinking about going this route as well.

 

you can run 265/75s on stock stuff with no issues...I did it for 2 years


I did it when I had a 1st gen too

 

Will do!

 

also remember when you put air in them they will get bigger than just putting them up against your stockers

 

i'm gonna do this once mine wear out!! i do have a minor lift.

i assume a speedometer error?

 

Nice! I know this thread is a year old but do you have any pics with them on and inflated?

According to TireRack.com sizing chart they are 1.1" taller, 31.7" vs 30.6" rugged fails

+ Rep

 

There have been plenty of other threads the past year on this as well.

I went from the 265/70-16 Rugged Fails to 265/75-16 Dynapro ATms also at 20,000 miles on the Rugged Fails. First thing you will discover (if you have a GPS) is that your speedometer will finally read correctly (instead of too fast)... A natural downfall is that your (Toyota posted) gas mileage will drop... Not because your new tires are bad, but because the speedometer is correct.

 

I have been running 265 75. 16's on my 06 since day one with no issues ever!

 

Good to know. I'm sitting at the shop now, waiting on my 265/75 Hankooks ($100 per at Discount Tires) and I began to question the choice, but if everyone says they won't rub then....

Fit looks tight in the pictures though. I have the rear TSB so hopefully all remains well back there and the front cooperates as well.

 

Soooo...my fronts rub pretty bad. I'm going to try taking off my mud flaps and see if I get any more clearance. At least enough while I save up for 5100's

 

?? If your stock tires were 265/70-16 and you changed to 265/75-16, there is no rubbing. The 75's are 1" taller and even four wheeling have never rubbed... same story on my 2005 taco... Unless you are not a 4x4, or TRD, or a model that was not made for 265/70-16s... ??

 

Do you have 16" or 17" wheels?

 

Didn't the OP hate these tires and take them off ?

 

I had Bridgestone Revo's, but due to the price I just switched to Hankook Dynapro ATM RF 110's and couldn't be happier! So far the ride has been better and minor off roading during hunting season has been no trouble at all! We'll see what the snow brings...

 

I'm (originally) a 245/70R16 PreRunner with rear TSB and stock front, with 8x16" after-market Buckshots. I took off the mudflaps and gained enough clearance in the rear of the front wheel well, but you still can't fit a piece of paper between those tires and the contours of the wheel well when turning. I'm thinking a lift in front to level the truck will be next on the list.

 

BUT, this thread is about 265/70-16 to 265/75-16... There is no rub between the /70 and /75.

I wouldn't think they would have a different clearance for those with a 245/70-16 stock tire wheel well... but that question should have been in a thread asking 245/70-16 to 265/75-16... right? Bummer...

 

these were 265/75/R16 Hankook DynaPro MT's that i had for a tad over a year ( i upgraded the same tire to a 35"). i had no issues with rubbing with these tires while on the trail, i also was setup up with the rear TSB's and 5100" at max in the front. these tires were great, i had 3 sets of them before i moved on to a different brand.

side note: i like to add just for reference; the Hankook's were a little taller then the BFG's for a comparison
