will 265/70/17 fit under a stock height 2 wheel drive 06 dakota?

 

Yes, they will just be wider than the stockers.

 

yes the'll fit, my bridgestones are 265/70/16 just watch them because mine actually do rub sometimes

 

I've had the 265/70/17 on my truck and they were catching the little front mud flap when turning, I think it just needed to be sucked back more and I wouldn't have any issues with that. not sure about putting screws or somthing in them to do this though.

I think they where clear of the frame, but then I didn't have a second person to hold the steering wheel while I stuck my hand around the back of the tire to check the clearance.

My next set of tires will be 265/70/17 only time will tell.
Most likely those

 

My opinion,

if your getting that size for free, or for a good deal, then I can see why you would be interested...

but if your doing it to plus size, its not worth it. Thats just my opinion though. I've been down that road.

 

would the leveling kit help with the 265/70/17

 

it might but still can rub on u joints

 

i know this thread is a couple months old, but i was rotating my tires and noticed they are starting to dry rot and are starting to wear down. i run 245/70/17 right now, but my spare was a 265/75/16 that was an aggressive a/t tire, which is the same size as a 265/70/17. I put it on, and no rubbing even at full turn. I had about 1.5 to 2 inches between tire and frame rail, then just to make sure, i took the jack and put pressure under that one wheel to lift it and it still had clearance. I am fixing to get the Nitto terra grapplers for my new tires.
