What size should I go with on my 16's with stock height or if I do a 2-3" lift?

Thanks!

Sounds like Revos then, but can someone tell me what would be a good size to go with. I'd like to go a little bigger but nothing to aggresive? Any suggestions.

Thanks!

Will 265/75/16's fit without the lift or do I need to lift it first to fit these tires under it. It has 265/70/16's on it now would the 75's be taller or wider.

Thanks for all the help!

My LT 265/75R 16 C's Toyo Open Country AT's fit fine on my stock height, with stock alloy wheels, Runner.

A 265/75R16, is approx. an inch taller than a 265/70R16.

The 265 is the section width of the tire in mm's.

The 75 is the aspect ratio, which means in this case that the sidewall height is 75% of the width.

R is Radial.

16 is the wheel diameter.

C is the load range, in this case a 6 ply tire.

Something else to keep in mind, is that not all tires branded a particular size are exactly the same actual size, there is usually some variation.

So you might try a particular tire on for size to make sure it will fit.

Hope this helps.

BFG AT's They're exellent on/offroad tires and wear well. Donahoe even uses them on their doublecab race truck.
