Hi,
I currently have 265/70 series Goodyears(Factory tires) on 16 inch rims on my 2001 4 wheel drive Dakota. Does anyone know if a BF Goodrich AT 265/75 series will fit my truck without rubbing the fenderwells?
Thanks

I just purchased 265/75 16 for my 2001 QC and the only trimming i had to do was in the front left wheel well, the plastic nearest the drivers door. In full right turn i had some rubbing but after trimming about 2 inches off i have had now other rubbing. So far the tires have been great. I recently noticed a few threads regarding these tires and lacking preformance in the snow but im happy so far.

Great tires, and they should work, but like Mason said little bit of trimming will be required to keep them from rubbing.
I do agree with Mason on the performance issue, but My dad has them on his Extended Cab Chevy Silverado Z71, and the tires perform 10 times better than they do on the dakota.
I guess it's cause of the weight.

I hate mine. I have a 3" body lift running 285's. They suck. They throw stones REALLY bad. My rockers are all screwed up. I had Goodyear ATS's before. Other then having balance issues (get a good tire shop), they were both quieter and rode better. I couldn't keep them in balance though in the 285 size. I guess they have problems with that size. Not sure why. I bet 265's would be ok.

BFG's are all we use here and all six of my trucks are used to plow snow. With the plow on front and 200-300lbs of sand in the rear we have had no troubles ever to speak of. Hell we even have the full road hazzard package.
