Switching from 245/75/16 to 265/70/16?

Bone stock tacoma.
(Dumb Question)
Was wondering if switching from the 245 to 265 change my speedometer or any noticible change? Will my truck sit higher?

thanks fellas

 

Maybe a 1/4 to 1/2 inch taller and no it will not affect the speedometer as most of the trucks come with that size from the factory.

Scroll down it will give you speed differences

 

the 265/70r16 are also a stock tire size. You'll barely notice a difference

 

both of those tires are effectively the same diameter. You will likely loose a smidge in the MPG department due to a wider tire, but that will mostly be effected by weight of said tire.

 

if you can perceive a speedometer change resulting from a difference of 1/10” in tire diameter, then you’re one perceptive SOB!

 

I went from the 245 to a 265/70-16 to a 265/75-16 to a 265/70-17 and did not notice any realistic change in mpg's. As for speedo, the last two slightly oversized tires actually corrected the speedo to be accurate, instead of reading a bit high.
