Interesting video.
When I purchased my 2002 Tundra used it came with GoodYear 265/75R16 Wrangler tires.rubberlegs said:I wonder if the wider tire is supposed to have lower pressure.
Anyway, it’s getting close to new tires time. I met a guy other day who had 265/75R16 instead of 265/70R16. So I’m thinking about whether an increase of 1” diameter is a good idea (about 3.5%). Hmmm.
How do you like the new tire size so far? My first impression was the steering seemed easier. But that might be all in my mind. I noticed there's quite a crown on the tires, and the middle was 15/32 but the outside tread was several 32nds less. The installers used 42 psi all around (and the truck was empty).57Pan said:Just so happens when I replaced my tires recently, that I went with 235/85r16 from previous 265/75r16 on my Toyota Tacoma. Same diameter, lighter and cheaper.
Thankfully before I lived in Everett, there was a seven months long tire fire in '84. They couldn't put it out, and of course, the tire pile wasn't all that far from the Snohomish river. HistoryLink storyThen all those old tires .... where are they all? I know some folks made sandals but really can all that stuff get ground up and converted into pavement or???
