Hey, anyone that can help me out I would really appreciate it.  I just ordered some MT/R 265/75R 16s for my Rubicon, does anyone know if I will rub any where with these things when the suspension is flexed? They are about an inch taller than the stock 245/75Rs.

265 would be 31" I think? I'm told 30" are 255. I thought Ribicons came with 31's factory???


I have 235's on my stock ZJ and am told they are 28"

265-75 are the same height as 32-10.50,245-75 are the same as a31"


go to tire rack on the internet in spec. they  have all tire measurements.

245X65X16=30.5 by 9.6


265X75X16= 31.6X10.4 actually


Of course size will differ by mfg.

I run an 04 rubi, with 2" lift, and lots of other doo dads, when the factory 16's
wear out, I figure @ about 30k, I am dumping the factory wheels, and going to 15x8"  black steel wheels. check out the pricing for 5 wheels and tires, and you will find it is nearly the same price for new wheels and 15 inch tires, as it is to re-fit with 16" sneakers.  I also plan on 33x10.5's with an additional 1'" body lift. any pro's or con's to my idea's would be helpful !!

04 rubi
05 crd

With 3" lift in a Tj, 33's will fit no problem.
