Larger Tires on 250-SD
Folks,
I'm just about ready to put on my first new set of tires on my 2000, 250SD. I plan on going to a Yoko Geolander 285/75/16 on my stock rims, and I'm looking for some feedback whether anyone has gone to this size tire on a stock truck (no lift) and had any problem with clearance. I have the original 235/85's now and they look tiny in the wheel wells. I know I'm giving up one size load rating (E to D), but I don't haul anything of significant weight anyway - I tow a fairly light travel trailer (~5000#). Any input is appreciated.
Thanks,
Dan

BFT- minimum rubish...On the front one side only...minimum though, and I have heard that some trucks dont rub...I believe it has to do with full turn lock and bounce....
I wouldn't put anything wider then 285/75 on the stock rims, although alot of people do it...And then they go to a 8" which doesn't buy much..
If it was me and 4X4..16 or 17" with 10" wide, proper offset and some lift...
But then I like to do things right...
