    Hi all,

    Well, it's time for new wheels and tires. I'm trying to decide which sizes to go with. Hoping for some input to help make the decision. Not sure why I'm struggling with what sizes to go with but I am. The overall diameter of the wheel/tire is the same, just not sure if there is any benefits to one over the other.

    265/75R16 or 265/70R17
    Dick Cepek Trail Country mounted on Ultra Gauntlet Matte Black wheels. Stock 17 SR double cab.

    I guess one area I am not clear with is the back spacing and offset. I do not like tires that stick out far from the fenders. Prefer them tucked in nice and tight. Plus less damage to the body.

    Any input would be appreciated.

    Thanks.
