P265/75R16's fit on stock 08?

Just wanted to ask if P65/75R16's would fit on my 08 Prerunner LB without any mods; and if you have any pictures of the same out there. Also, would stepping up to this size from P245/75R16 change gas mileage much?

 

From what i've read 265/75/16 is the biggest we can go without rubbing with no lift. I've been looking at this alot since i also plan on getting this size.

 

What have you heard about the drop in MPG?

 

^Yes, they will fit. I saw no drop in mileage but that would depend on the weight of the tire you put on.

 

Keep in mind a wider tire weighs more than just going to a taller tire. Most of us go wider when we go taller but if you keep close to your stock width you will keep the tires weight down. Just a heads up, I didn't follow this by any means.

 

Thanks for responses; do you guys have pics of stock height with this size tire?

 

i am running that size w/ a stock truck right now. i have a couple shots in my gallery. no rubbing and it fills the wheel wells nicely.

 

Not the best pic:

 

WilsonTheDog, Thanks for responses. You said no drop in MPG. Did you start out with Dunlop GrandTrek 245/75/16? What kind of 265/6516's do you have? I saw the pic, but couldn't make out what model they were. Looks great, though. PS diddo on the NObama.

 

Yes, had the Dunslops, replaced after about 7K miles and they sit in my garage taking up space. I now have Firestone Destination A/T's. They are P rated (I don't really go off road), which keeps the weight down. If you go with C or D rated tires, weight will increase dramatically. The 245/75/16 Dunslops weigh 34lbs while the 265/75/16 Destinations are 44lbs. C rated Destinations are 50lbs.

 

Thanks for the info; I assume by C and D rating you mean extra Ply, as in LT?

 

^Yes.
