I am running 265x70 tires, it's the same height as the 245x75 but about 3/4" wider. The only problem with wider tires is a little bit of tire rubbing on the front swaybar at full lock.

If you go larger, 265x75, which is about 32", you might have to do some wheel well trimming and or get rid of the plastic well liners front and rear.

I believe its StevesKJ that runs a 265/75 BFG KM. Any 265/75 should fit with the right BS rims. Wheel well liner trimming WILL be required though, and possibly relocating the washer bottle.
