Default Again..Looking for Max Tire Size w/NO Lift

Hello, just like to say I'm really diggin checkin out all the nice rides on this site, its giving me some ideas....but anyway, my first step is to get new tires as my Wranglers have worn out after 68K miles. My stock tire is a 265/70R16. I want the Bridgestone Dueler ATS Revo's but can only get them in 265/75R16 , an inch taller than the 260's. Will this work with no rubs? Anyone out there that has this setup?

I just bought 4 brand new hankook dynapro M/T tires for my truck and they are 265-75-16..they are actualy a (32 inch tires says the paper the tires came with), however they are an extreamly agressive tread pattern. They are atleast an inch or so bigger that what i took out of there and no problems rubbing.. Also they didnt rub when i gave them a test run with my 7.2 western plow.. so you should be good

My Dueler Revos are 31.5" and they've never touched, even on the hardest turns and jumps.
