Default 265/75/16's on 97' Ram 2wd stock rims?

I currently have 245/75/16's, but was wondering if 265/75/16's will fit on 97' Ram 2wd stock rims without rubbing in full wheel lock?

well if the rim size is 16 and reg tire is 75 they would mount on there only thing you would have to really worry about is clearence under the wheel well turning i had a ford 150 4x4 stock went from 16 75 put 265 on with no problem just gas mileage ,

you can adjust your steering bolts to prevent full wheel lock rubbing., i just had to recently going from 265s to 285s.. its quite simple and only takes two 9/16th wrenches.

I have 265x75x16 under my 97 2wd and I have no problems what so ever, but I have noticed mine seems to sit higher then most other 2wd's, not sure why.

I've got 255/70's on my 95 2wd ram and I got lots of room.
