I used to have 245/75r16s bfg at's on my MN, it was a weapon in the sand comparing to my current 265/75r16 Bridgestone muddies. I personally think that the ideal size for the Triton is around that 775mm diameter, especially if you're not tackling the real extreme tracks where ground clearance is important.

Hey srb,
Did you have the 265/75 r16's on the OEM rims? any issues with rubbing if so?

No have always had them on 16×8 aftermarket alloys +15 offset. But most people run that size tyre on oem wheel with no scrub.

I have had the BFG KO2 265/75r16’s on the factory alloys (Aug 17 GLX+) for a couple of weeks now. Done some light off-roading also with no rubbing of any guards at full lock steering or through suspension stroke. I do only have standard suspension also.
