hey I am in need of some new tires for my blazer. its a 96 4x4 4door. right now i got 235-75-15 stock on them. i was thinking about getting maybe 265-75-15, would that fit? mine is stock height no lifts. also what brand do you guys recommend?

 

nope, wont fit.

thats a 31x10.50. You need at least 2' of lift to run 31s, or you could do no lift, and cut a bit of wheel well off.

 

well how about a 255 75 or a 255 70?

 

Those should fit...the actual dimensions of the tire will probably be a little smaller than those sizes (29x10, and 30x10). 30x9.5 is the biggest you can go with with no scrub...that 30x10 may scrub a little, but like I said about actual dimensions, you might be fine.

Do you have a specific tire in mind?

 

I am not really sure about a specific tire yet. just looking at sizes still. 255 70 or 75. http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires....e1=yes&place=0 is what i was thinking. would this fit without any rubbing at all?

 

That should yea..actual dimensions of the 255/70 are 29.1x10.2. So, you might scrub a little. If you want to go big and be sure you wont rub AT ALL...go with a 30x9.5

 

I have Uniroyal Laraedo 255/70s on stock rims, and I rub with those only at full lock turning right, and that's just barely rubbing. Other than that I've never rubbed with them, even off roading. (I know that those are not good off road tires. That's why I have 2 sets.)

 

hmmm. so what would be the biggest i could go with absolutely no rubbing like no matter how far you turn the wheel?

 

 

look on post above his. the guy who has tires that size rubs at full lock. it depends on what tire what the tread width, etc. USUALLY though 255/70 or 30/9.5 are OK
