265/75r16 wont rub

I have the BFG ATs and like 'em. Pretty aggressive tread and good for all types of driving

 

I dont think those will fit on the stock rims.. will they?

 

What size tires are on your truck right now?

yes they do. Tons of people (me included) do it with zero problem

 

If you want somrthing really aggressive, I've got 5 used BFG MT's in 265/75-16 I can make you a smokin deal on. They are in excellent condition.

You can even run a 285 on the stock rim. It will rub, but it will work if you make it.

Nah im not lookin for a mud tire. Just an AT tire

 

265/75/16 as has been said, wont rub, a lot of us have them on our truck right now.

And a lot of people like the BFG AT's

Well, I've got another set of 5 used BFG A/T's in 285 size. In good condition, but not as new as the mt's I have. Really good deal on those, too.

 

^ Are those 16's, or 17's?

 

Both sets are 16"

 

Will a 285 fit in the spare spot?

I heard it maxed out at 265.

 

Oh well, figured I'd ask.

No, a 285 won't.

But I will gladly sell you 4 instead of 5.

Ahaha, oh thanks! Ifn I had a lift I'd take you up, but I think I'ma go with some 265s. Sorry bud!

That and some of the reason I still run 265's is because many people (including your self) went back down to them from 285s :lol:

He just went back to 285s

 

He just went back to 285s

Darn Bill make up your mind! haha.

He'll be back down to 265's next week. Just wait :naughty:

 

No. No going back.

I liked the size of the 285 at, but I liked the traction and better road manners of the 265 mt. Size won. 1/2" of ground clearance makes a HUGE difference off-road. Went to Livingston a few weeks back and stuff I was clearing last year on the 285 at's, I was grinding over this year with the 265 mt's. Had to go back up in size.

Of course, this all translates to a helluva deal on some hardly used tires for someone.

BTW- this is the 5th set of tires I've had on this truck in 3 years. I'm like Norcal and his light bulbs.

255/70 Michelin LTX-MS's
285/75 Goodyear Wrangler AT's
285/75 BFG AT's
265/75 BFG MT's
Now the Coopers.

 

How hard would it be to keep the 285's from rubbing?

And I'm calling dibs on the 285 AT's if this goes the way i'm hoping it will

 

Ok. I'm looking for a more agressive tread (like an AT tire) on a tire that will fit on the stock rims and not rub or require a lift or trimming....

Thanks!

If it's just the more agressive look your going for, why not get an A/T tire in the same size you have now.

Seems simple to me...

I want the more agressive tread but the stock tires are a little small for the truck.

So then look back at the first reply to your question...

Those are essentially the next size up :thumbup:

They wre listed at KYTTORA, INTTORA and the local paper. I figured no one would want to pay for shipping on used tires. I was wrong, I guess, cause I sold both sets in this thread.:whatwhat:
