I am lookin at buying some Blizaaks for the Expy.. just worried about rubbing.
the 265s are just a little wider and taller.. but just wanna make sure...

Yep, inch and a half larger diameter, half of that will be below the rim riasing the vehicle up. That will make your speedo and odo about 5% lower than you are actually doing.
But they will fit any Expedition, no rub.
