Air wayyyyyyy down for the sand. I'd go 15 psi or so.

Unless you have every intention of buying out your lease, I would pass on the 265/75/16's. You will need to do MAJOR fender trimming and modifying to accomodate tires of that size. Honestly, the extra .5" of clearance isn't worth it either. I run 265/75 AT's and I have more rubbing than you could imagine. My next set of meats won't be 265/75's.

Stick with 245/75's. You'll be much much happier.

well i already paid for them and i was just going to remove the pastic inner fenders. my brother is the salesman at the dealership so i can get away with a little more. but i will be returning it to stock before i give it back.
i was going to go even lower on tire pressure, dunno will see what the tires can handle
