265r16 tyres

[Big Dev]

Hi All, Big Devs the name. Just joined today. Hope you are all well.

I just got myself a ST-X D40 Navara, just wondering if 265/r16 tyres will fit without a suspension lift. I currently have the standard 255/r16 continental tyres on? Any advise will be much apprciated

Best Regards
Big Dev

stock rims 265/75/16's will fit without a lift but may scrub a little on the front mudflaps

I have 265/70 R16 BF Goodrich All Terrains on mine. The tyres do not touch the vehicle when at full lock or under suspension compression. They are 2% larger than the standard tyres, so the ECU will calculate speed and distance incorrectly (indicating 2% lower).

265/75s are 5% larger and should rub on the front mudflaps & inside of the front guards when the suspension is compressing at full lock. You might be able to use a heat gun to modify the inner guard, but may also have to cut away part of the mudflap.
