I have all stock suspension with boiler 3/8 shims in the front.
I was at pep boys and really liked the "definity 245/75/16 M/T dakota" tires.
Anyone know if they fit? $138 a piece 4th one free...

Yup, they fit. I had 245/75/16 Hankook M/Ts installed and wish I would have gotten 265s after I installed the Daystar lift. |

It will rub unless you do some trimming on the fender and pound the pinch weld |

Elt31987 is correct, there is some minor rubbing if you turn your wheels all the way, to either side. that is on a flat surface w/o flexing and w my Goodyear Silent Armor, which are A/T not M/T. I think M/T pattern would create more rub, that might not be the case because it also depend on the tire. I would run to Pep Boys have them put them on to test for fit and have them help you determine what would be the biggest you can fit w/o mod. Here is a couple of pictures of my Wheels w GDYR

Hankook 245/75/16 M/T I didn't have any rubbing except at full lock full compression (which I didn't assume you would be doing much off-road with your tire choice) Maybe my KK is different from others. |

I have 245/75R16 Goodyear MT/Rs on my KK, but I also installed a 2.5" Daystar lift as well. I have no issues with rubbing at all with the lift installed. I would imagine that they would rub at stock ride height. |
