I was curious if anyone was running 265\75's on a stock wheel. I have a 95 with the RTE 3 inch setup and currently have 235/85's and am looking for something a little wider. I have also thought about 265/80's which I believe is a 33 x 10.5 but was concearned about the height. Also swamper makes a 265/70 which they caim to be 31.5 tall which is real close to the height of the 235 with the width I was wanting. Any info would be appreciated. Thanks, Daniel

265 80 is 32x10.50 not 33x10.50

265/75 work just fine on stock LR alloys.

will I need to run a spacer or different offset to accomodate the 265\75?

stock wheels are fine with 265/75*16.
you might rub in the radius arms when you turn the steering wheel fully. if that's the case, you can easily adjust your turning stops, and give up some turning radius.

you could use spacers or wheels that have less backspacing to gain back the turning radius, but that might call for more butchering of body panels.
