A 285/70/16 tire is 1'' wider (same width as 285/75/16) and .06'' taller than a 265/75/15. That is the tire you are looking for.
Thanks

Some people like them, some dont. I like the Bushwacker OE style a lot.
Are you gonna paint your bumper and grille? It makes your truck look like ****!
Better than having some hunk of metal in there. Plus you get some cool wheels out of it.
One of the most used and overused wheel/tire combinations on our trucks is the 35x13.5x15 on 15'' wheels with 4.5'' backspacing. It just looks ****ing horrible IMHO.

To the OP: You could also get some Off-Road edition 17x8 wheels with 275/70/17 tires. Those would probably stick out enough to make those fenders look really good. Post some pics.
