New Tire Size

[Derick Cardenas]

Hi guys,



Time to change my tires on my ST 2001 4x4. Recently installed with the RAS and there was a significant improvement on the body bounce! height between the tires and body added i think 2 inches.



But i found out that one of the tires has a bad bump. time to change the tires.

i was looking at the size 265/75 on my stock 16 inch rims.

will htese need "SPACERS"?

i carry usually when i deliver some items almost half a ton on the truck. and i wanted a bigger tire size without adding any modifications.



I've installed the EE sway bar already (rear). any ideas?



Fuel and mileage is also a concern too! thanks.

i had to put spacers on the back with the 265/75/R16 BFG's because the rubbed the inside of the wheel well when the suspension flexed. front didnt need anything but still rub on the sway bar at full turn, not bad though

Install a set of air shocks on the rear. Ill post a pick of my st with a full yard of dirt in the bed
