Default Need Photo-1500 with 285s vs 265s

Before you tell me to search about this topic of 285's vs 265's I have looked through countless threads.

All I am looking for is a good photo, side profile if possible of a stock Ram 1500 4x4 with 285/75/16s and a photo of one with 265's. Your help is appreciated.

Depending on what wheels you use you might get some tire rub on full lock.

I have the same wheels as the pic you put up for me. Stock 16s. Did you notice much rub at full lock with the stock setup before you added your lift nopower318?

I know this is a little OT, but how come 4X4's with 285's rub when at full lock, yet they sit higher than my 2WD, which doesn't rub at all at full lock with 285's? Is it y'alls control arms that they rub against?
