Quick Tire Question?

O.k so I need new tires as soon as possible and i'm torn between 265/75/16 and 285/75/16. I have a 97 2wd and i'll be putting on some 2" lift coils soon so i'll have plenty of room for either. Do you think the 265's will look to small. I can get them for a better price and i'd like to lose as little performance as possible. What is the actual size diffrence between the two? I know you guys would love to help me spend some money today so let me know

you're looking at a 32x10.5 (265)vs a 33x11.5 (285)-- personally i'd go with the 285's

The wallet won out . I got the 265's cause they were only 90 bucks each. Oh well I'm still happy and now I've got money left over for the 4.10's

I also would have gone with the 285's, but for $90 buck's ea. the 265's would look good if you are on a budget. But Finalday why the 4.10 gears?
