Question:
I'm looking to put some all-terrain tires on my ford ranger 4x4 off road pickup. I have some girly looking tires on it right now. Not very aggressive and too small. 235/70/16. Is their a noticeable difference in the two sizes that i'm looking at above?

is it bad to drive your car with out letting it warm up all the way?
However, it sounds like you are more interested in the tire height. This can be calculated by taking the width (265), multiplying by the aspect ratio (75%), and dividing by 25.4 to get the sidewall height in inches. To get overall height, double the sidewall height (1 on top, 1 on bottom), and add to the rim diameter (16). Doing this yields the following results:
235/70/16 = 29.0 inches
245/75/16 = 30.5 inches
265/75/16 = 31.6 inches
Both of the tires you are considering are good choices for this vehicle, but I'd go with the 265's!
How much would an excellent paint job cost for my 2000 Infiniti I30?
Roughly 20 mm of tread width, and 20mm is about 1 1/2 inch.not a big difference at all.
The 265's would be the larger tire overall. The 245's would be in the middle.
How can I make my exhaust quieter from the cat. back?
it'll sit a little higherThe 265/75/16 is both wider and taller than the 245/75/16. The increase in tire diameter would be enough to make the speedometer read slightly off (you will actually be traveling a little faster than your speedometer is showing). I have no idea if there will be a problem with the tire rubbing the fenderwells or anything, but if I were to guess I would say if it does it peobably won't be too much. There would be a very noticable difference in size, though. Definately would earn your man card back with the 265/75/16.

The first no. applies to width the second height the third size.The 265s will give you better traction and cornering.More Questions & Answers ...
