Should work just fine, with a slight possibility of minor rubbing, nothing a bit of trimming wont fix.

I'm running 265/75R17's from a 2009 ram right now, with minor rubbing, looks alot better though, fills the wheel wells alot better. So I say go for it

i installed a 2 inch spacer, one of the aluminum ones from ebay... not bad, bumpier ride, but 265 75 16 on the stock steelies seems to be the largest that will fit without trimming on my truck, no rubbing offroad at all, looking to go to a bigger size now, (have the nitto terra grapplers they are ok... liked dunlop mud rovers the best)

Got them on today, fills the wells a lot better than the stock size and looks beefier! Not bad for $130 for the whole set of rims and tires
