Ok i just used the tire/wheel calculator, And it looks like the 275x70x16 is
a better fit than the 265x75x16 tires. between these two the 275 is 1.73"
lrgr diameter than the 265x70x16, wont rub anywhere, the 265x75x16 is 3.28"
lrgr than the 265x70x16 this will rub. On stock heighth Dak 4x4. and with
the 275 you get approx 1/2" more in tread width.
