305/75/16....any info?

I did a search and found little info about this tire size. I was dead set on 305/70/16, but after finding a tire in the 305/75, I think I want to go that route. My truck is an 03 4x4 Screw, no lift. Can I get this tire to fit on a 10" wheel without rubbing? Anyone have any pics? Any help would be great!

i dont think they will fit. a 305/70/16 is a 33x12.50 and with that tire you have to crank the t-bars up and trim some plastic. a 305/75/16 is a 34x12 it might because its not as wide, but i dont think it will without some type of lift. i say put a 3" bodylift and put some 35's. JMO

Where did you see a 305/75-16? I've never seen that size. Could it have been a 315/75-16 (35x12.50)? To fit a 315/75-16 on a 16x10 inch wheel, you will have to install at least a 3 inch body lift. Even then you will have to crank up the torsion bars and trim the front bumper's lower plastic valance for clearance.

Here is the tire in question...I am planning on a 3"bl later on down the road, but if the 305/75's wont fit without it, I guess Ill have to go with the 305/70's.

i say call stopandgotires. and ask them if thats right. i think that is a typo on their website. i know that mastercraft does make a 305/70/16 in that type of tire.

THERE IS A WEB SITE ON EBAY THAT SELLS T.B. KEYS TO GIVE YOU 2.5IN OF LIFT SO THAT YOU CAN FIT UP TO A 35 W/OUT RUBBING. THIS KIT WILL SELL FOR ABOUT $85 WITH SHIPPING OR YOU CAN BUY THE TB KEYS AND REAR LEAFS FOR $170. I THINK THE WEB SITE IS UNLIMITED OFF ROAD.
