I have 265/75s on my 2wd, they look fine, have plenty of clearance, and provide some added traction when I get into the slick stuff

I've got 255/70R16's and they still look small. I thought about going a little bigger, but I don't have any off road or muddin problems with these. I think you can go up 285/75R16's, but i'm not 100% sure.

265/70/16 is the largest you can go without rubbing. anything bigger and you will start rubbing. at least that is what the les schwab people told me when i got new tires.
