    265/75/16 BFG All Terrains vs stock 245/75/16

    Isn't the 75 the width? So he isn't even going wider..? Or am I missing something?

    Ah ok, thank you for the explanation. :)

    So, if I wanted to do the same as this guy.. and get 265s as an upgrade over my 245s, I would need new rims as well?

    I think you should save a little longer and get both at the same time....... The 265's would require a little trimming to fit at stock height.

    Replaced head unit, tint, blacked out tail lights, 10in sub, billet grill, 3 in front lift, led halo projector lights, camper shell.
    doing the lift will jsut help ya stand out alittle and make you alittle bigger.. once you get the tires youll get alittle more lift and it will complete the package even more

    just do the suspension 1st, that's what I did and now I can take forever to get new rims and tires. It's not that bad on the 245/75/16's with a 2-3" lift, see....
