Bigger tires

I am stock height and was going to go to a 265 70 17 will it rub. I am installing Cooper discover stt pro when I get new tires or could I fit a 265 75 17 with out a lift with no rubbing or cutting.

 

Man, I wish they made a 265/75R17....

 

The guy a the tire store said something about that size so I figured it was a size.

 

If you find an AT in this size, let me know! I've looked everywhere.

 

There are 265/75/17's out there but they are an "off" tire size and are may cost a premium as such. Apparently General AT2's can be found in that size. But I'm guessing they are D or E rated which I would stay away from unless I was going to be doing mostly rough trail driving.

Ok i looked at the link and used the tire size calculator. But i still cant tell if the 265/70/17 tires will rub while the wheels are at full turn traveling downhill at high speed and braking hard on a thursday in July. Oh BTW i have stock prerunner suspension.

 

What are the different load rating and what are they for

Load Range/Ply Rating. C is a light truck/SUV tire.

Thanks that's what I was looking for

 

I'm not a tire expert, but I just bought some C rated Toyo ATII's and am extremely happy with my choice.

It is a mixed bag on how people feel towards D or E rated tires, especially depending on your intended application. Some say they ride like a dump truck, others say they ride fine. I myself am on pavement 85% of the time, so ride quality was more important to me than offroad application, hence a C-rated all terrain tire fit me just fine.

 

Good info.

Also think about tire rotation. Load E are a b!tch to rotate!!

 

Why is that

 

Wait, what?
Not sure if cereal.

 

They are heavy as hell !!! Sometimes a lot harder to balance as well.

 

Not enough facepalm for this, I'm out.

 

Okay thanks I didn't think about the weight I deal with industrial tire that weigh are 150 a piece so I don't think about the weight of them.
