265/75R16 Tires on 97 T100

I know that the stock size of my truck is 265/70R16. I would like to get a set of Hankook's New DynaPro RF10's http://www.hankooktireusa.com/product/RF10.pdf

Has anyone tried 265/75-16 on their T100. What kind of tire and how does it fit? Does it affect the speedo or the turining radius?

Thanks, I'd like to compare the overall diameter to see if I can do it on my truck.

1997 T100 SR5 Xtra Cab, 4x4 - stock suspension - except for KYB Mighty Max. No lift past stock.

Thanks.

Yeah, I figured they were 1" taller. But the current Geolandars I have on there now rub on tight turns, and they are worn out. How will a brand new set of tires 1" larger in OD function?

Kinda late response, but they fit just fine. If they rub, you either have wheels with the incorrect back spacing, or need to crank the T-bars a bit.

FWIW, I ran 285s and 305s on my rig with minimal rubbing...

yeah, they'll affect your speedo...i used a gps to see my true speed when i went from 265/70/16s to the 265/75/16s on my 4runner and at 70 mph on the speedo, i was actually going 71.3 on gps...not that much difference, but something to keep in mind if your local cops get a little "ticket-happy"...
