Which size tire would you select?
Hey folks, been a little while and hope all are doing well.
I am beginning to look for All-terrain tires for hunting/winter. I really like the Destination A/T, and they have been great on wife's explorer. My problem is I would like to go taller, taller only. I am having a hard time finding anything in a 265/65-75/18 size. Any thoughts, ideas, what do you have. I am even willing to go down a size on the width to get a little more height out of the truck.
Stock is 265/60/18
Thanks,
Ray

According to the local shop 265-75 would be fine without any lift needed. I bought tires last week and wanted to go the 265-75 route but stuck with 265-65 because of the 14mpg I get in town.
I went with the Yokohama Geolandar ATS. Not sure if this will be aggressive enough for you but i like the looks. Actual pics to come but i haven't had a chance to wash the truck and get some photos.

edit* If you are in a hurry try going to the main page for 3rd gen Daks and use the search this forum. This is a common topic. Otherwise I'm sure some of the pros will chime in soon with more thoughts.

265/60/18 is what, about a 30.5" x 10.75" tire, no?
How about a 275/65/18 at 32" x 10.75", it would be about a half inch shorter than a 265/70/18 (32.6" x 10.8") but roughly the same width?
If a 32.5" tire would rub, a 32" tire might go. I don't know if the Destinations come in that size, but I know that the Nitto Terra Grappler does...
