265/75 on a 2WD?

Postby Rob_O » Sun Dec 16, 2012 12:51 pm

My truck has 235/85 on it now and they're tight in the front wheelwell. These tires are about 1.5" wider, anyone have experience with them and know if they will fit?

A friend of mine has 265s on a D250. I don't recall seeing any spacers or the like.

That's what I was thinking would happen

Local guy had a set for sale, the tires were well worth the money he wanted and they came mounted on a set of 16*10 Eagle wheels but they were not load rated. They'll look real pretty on someones mall crawler
