What is the largest tire that I can reasonably put on my stock 16X6 Wheels? Looking at BFG All Terrains, other suggestions welcomed. (I think I want to stay away from mudders)

 

I have had 315's on the stock wheel on my old truck

 

I had 1100R16 (they measure to about 40" diameter) Michlien XL's on my stock rims, and stock truck no lift, just a little trimming.

 

little trimming dang 37's rubbed decent on my stock 4x

 

255/85's are the biggest most shops will install.

 

265/75's is what we did at our shop. <--about the same as 255/85 just a bit wider and shorter (evens out when inflated to be about the same)

 

are thos 265/85s much wider than the stock 235/85s? I do not understand this number system. Is the first number the height, and the second the width, or vice-versa?

 

I meant 255/85 sorry.

 

Pics on the 40"s up in first gen pics thread.

 

the 255 is the tread width in mm. the 85 means that the sidewall is 85% as tall as the tread is wide. I hope that makes sense

 

Anybody make a 255/85 that's not a mudder? I want bfg all-terrains, but they don't come in this size. They do come in 265/75s, but they aren't any taller than the factory 235/85s. Does anyone make a tire like this?

 

In my personal opinnion bfg all terrains suck

 

i got some kumo a/t's 285/75/16 they dont rub at all and fit the wheel wells good

 

a 315 doesnt rub on a stock 4x4

 

TOYO M55 Are a good traction tire (not mudder) that was developed for the forest service and they come in a 255/85R16 Load Rand "E" 10 Ply...
