265's ?
 
I was wondering, I have a 1998 Expy. I want to put rims and tires on it. I know I want to put BFG All-Terrains on it with AR Baja's. I was wondering, would 265/75R16's fit alright and look good on 16x8 rims. Or would 16x7's be a better choice.

Yes, they will fit using 16x7's or 16x8's. The fit will be a little tight with 16x8's if you have a 4x2. If its a 4x4, they will fit easily with room to spare.

It is a 4x4, but I was wondering, which would look better, the 7's or the 8's ?

It really depends on what look you like the best. With an 8" rim, you will have a straighter sidewall, and with the 7" you will have more of a rounded sidewall. With that size tire, I would personally go with a 7", but that's just the look I like the best.

I'd go with a 8 inch wide wheel. Heck, the OEM 17's are 7 1/2 inches wide.
