Actually rub and not rub on the same size is common the part that rubs is the Tread - the 235/245 number is the section width that's the wide part of the tire - but it's not the tread depending on the tread design the width can vary 1/2" or more for the same section width. Most folks can fit a 235/75/16 or a 245/70/16 unlifted. do not try a 245/75/16 - you won't be able to turn the wheel. if you're concerned - check with the tire shop's return policy and see if you can 'test' drive something. |
