Best Answer

If 225/75-16 is the original equipment tire the answer is no. The 265 tire is far too large in overall diameter. Your speedometer would read 55.5 at a true 60 mph. You would see a drastic reduction in power and the tire may even rub the finder liner when turning sharply. Your mpg would also be adversely effected. You can however go to a 245/70-16 which will be a very good substitute.

No, if you wish to swap to 50 series tires then you have to go to 265/50-16 which will keep the overall diameter close to the same. You may have clearance issues on the side with this tire. My advise is to stick with the OEM size.

How do you figure the width of a truck tire?

Most automotive tires have adopted a standard method of tire size. e.g. 265 70 17 The 265 is the tread width in millimeters. The 70 is the height of the tire in relation to the width. In this case 70% of 265 millimeters, 18.55 mm tall. the 17 is the rim size in inches. 225 60 16 = tread width 225 millimeters Height from rim to tread 60% of 225 = 135 mm and the rim or wheel size is 16 inches. I hope this helps.
