well, sidewall will be .52" larger, overall diameter +1.04", width same, circumference +3.28", and 22.33 revolutions per mile less with the 265/75/16's, when you're speedo says 65, you'll actually be going 67.21...

but I don't own a tacoma so that is just random info i pulled up

I just put a set of 265/75R16 BFG ATs on my wifes 04 Taco and they do rub on the fram at full turn a little bit. Off road it would rub quite a bit I think. It is frame rubbing so not at all a big deal. No pinch weld or fender contact so far which are the real annoying places to get rubbing. It looks pretty good. Just a little more beefy for a stock Taco.

I got a set of 265/75/16 Toyo MT's on my '00 Tacoma and boy howdy did they rub! Seemed to to really rub the frame when making right hand turns more than left. A 3 inch lift cured this problem.
