Possible. I know my stock 265/65r17 have a bit of clearance for the steering knuckle but when I tried Goodyear 265/75r16 on a oem steel wheel (the silver ones), the sidewall would rub slightly. I know they are both 265 wide, but my 16inch's bubble out of the side (if that makes any sense). Not...
These are Taco rims. If I had the stock xl rims I would go with 235/85r16s. I'm thinking the 265s might rub on the spindle. My summer tires are 265/70r17 on STX mags and they had a quarter inch of clearance so I switched to 17inch steelies.
Thanks Cliff! That's the exact reason I went back to steelies, my wheels usually take a beating on my past jeeps and trucks. If you're going that route, make sure you do not use the oem steel wheels, they just don't have enough offset and your tires will rub on the control arms. Also, Thank you...
