265/70/16's on 01 Pathfinder

Does anyone know if this will rub? I am running 255/70's now and would like to go slightly bigger. I would imagine a .55" OD difference wouldn't be a huge deal, but it would be good to know before I bought the tires.

I would stick to the 245-70-16 or 255-65-16 that came stock on most pathfinders....

You won't gain anything buy moving up like that...-Chet

I have really enjoyed the 255/70's I have now... the BFG AT's are a great tire and don't come in the 255/65's. I was thinking of going with the 265 just because they are only $10 more and would fill out the look a bit more. I've got my 240 for function. R50's look strange with the stock tire... and the cool thing about the BFG's is they drive (on all surfaces) twice as good as they look.

Thanks, but I'd still like to know if the 265/70's would fit without rubbing.

they'll scrub.....and make your ABS and speedo worse.

Stick with the 255 if that's been working.-Chet
