Tires: tire size, discount tire, carrying capacity

Question
hello, can i replace 255/70/16 tires on my 2001    f 150 2 wd with 265/75/16 thank you

Answer
Daniel,

Fitting tires to vehicles is very complex.  It's not only about load carrying capacity, but also about clearing the bodywork and frame.  

I just don't have access to the measurements that are needed to be sure you are given good guidance.  

Tire Rack and Discount Tire both do these measurements and are aware of what fits and what doesn't.  Plus they also pay attention to load carrying capacity.

I recommend you consult their web sites and follow their recommendations.
