Unless I missed a part of the thread I don't see anyone discussing the largest tire size w/o modifications for 16" rim. My 2023 XL 4x4 Extended Cab has OEM Bridgestone Dualer HS in 255/70R16 and I need to move up to a true LT tire for moving heavy materials in the bed. From what my math tells me I can squeeze a 265/75R16, which averages 31.5" diameter, into the front well with at least .75" to spare. Is this the be size or is a 245/75R16 a better fit, which is only pretty much the same 30.5" diameter as the OEM tire.

Your thoughts on the best/largest size for 16" rim w/o lift or spacers?..

You should be ok wth the 265/75R16. Probably the highest you can go with out mods.

Just put 265/70/17 on Method 316 17/8.5 and got the rubs. Didn't take into account that the wheel offset was so far off the stock 18" wheels. 2" level and new ReadyLift intrusion bars coming next week.

Sorry to hear about the snag...Out of curiosity, what offset did you run?

From what I've read, a 285/70/17 on oem Tremor wheels will fit with no lift, but it does require the high clearance crash bars.

This person illustrated it in a video.

Yeah, it's on me for not doing all my homework. Ordered the wheels at 0 offset not realizing stock was +55.

Lift and narrow crash bars worked!

I was able to stuff 285/70/17s on mine, 2.5 level and some slight grinder action lmao

Just a reminder that no lift is for amateurs. Try lowered on 33’s! Actually I changed my tire size a little bit so I can get a little better performance and I might drop it more soon. I am now…. Lowered on 32’s!

I put some bronco tires on mine. 255/75/17. No rubbing. Though i fear if i get aggressive off road tires they may rub. It clears by less than an inch. I have a 4x2, take it hunting and on dirt a lot. Truck works just fine with lockers. Fx2. I do 35 percent off road or so. But i do not off road. Have dueller a/t. I hope it helps a little, i know 17 not the same as 16

the lighter fits loosely at the rear, and tightly in the front. Lighter dimensions are 5/8ths thick and one inch wide.

cheeers

is this with no lift or with leveling kit???

As a follow up, I went with Continental TerraContact AT's in 265/75R16. They feel very good under the truck at all speeds, are quiet and have the right look for a "work mule".

Cool looking set up! Looking forward to hearing how the tires perform for you over time!

Rainy weather this AM, and the truck stopped on a dime compared to the OEM Bridgestone tires supplied at delivery
