Which tire size would fit better? TOYO ATII

So... I had ordered skinny tires from Falken Wildpeaks AT3W 235/85/R16. But they were a little to skinny when I saw them in person so I am returning them.

With that said, I am looking into Toyo's AT II.
Either 265/75/R16 or 285/75/R16.

I have a lift kit that is measured to be around 1.8" from hub.

Please state why!

 

Why not 255/85/r16?

 

Do you really need 33's? I would go 265/75/16 (32"). Not as much MPG drop from stock (~2MPG), not a significant loss in power, and cheaper.

 

285's will be heavy and rub on your plastics likely. Will definitely look killer though.

The ATii in a 265 is plenty of tire and won't rub . It' s appearace is somewhat nderwhelming however.

 

I forgot to mention, I will get a cab mount chop done if need be.

are you talking about the black plastic trims or the front bumper?

 

Still too skinny, I need a bit wider since I am in swamp land lol. Almost bottomless mud.

 

Does 265s would need a cab mount chop? Would it rub when suspension gets compressed while offroading?

 

My 285's have always rubbed the inside rear corner of my front fenders and some fender liner. I also have a cmc.

I assume you realize that 285 on a stock wheel might also rub your uca?

 

Ugh... didn't think about the UCA! Well... I'll probably get 265... Maybe later in the future, I'll get 285 when I get new wheels when these gets all scratched up.

 

Or maybe I'll just go with Toyo R/T 265/75/R16 since they are a bit more aggressive and are 31.9" instead of AT2 265/75/R16 31.6"

 

No, it'll fit on a 100% stock truck. Possibly minimal rub at full compression and lock. But not a big deal. Plug and play.

 

If you like a beefy looking tire, I would definitely choose a different tire in a 265. The RT is nice.

I also drive a 2nd gen. Not sure if a 285 clears the uca on a 3rd gen
