I would wait until you've put on the leveling kit before mounting up those tires. And don't forget the pics when it's all done.

I just got 265/75 16's put on yesterday and the front right rubs when the wheel is turned to the left only because the inner wheel well plastic is warped and bent inwards. my 245/70 also rubbed when doing a full left.

if you currently don't have any rubbing while doing a full left/right turn, I wouldn't worry about it.

It looks alot higher for sure! Not in a bad way though. I have to do something to get rid of my rake .... but my parents will kill me if I stick one more dime in my truck.

Little do they know the tailgate light bar is in the mail ..... every day I pray that my brother or I will get home before them to hide any packages. Lol
