I trade in my 265/70/16 stocks for 285/75/16. I am happy with them, but had to trim the gap guards a bit, and now have rubbing on the front right fender, after someone backed into me (very little clearance).

The 305/70/16 is the same diameter, but a tiny bit wider. You don't want wider, unless you look at installing spacers. Look at the tire calculator at www.1010tires.com to see what the size and speed ratio changes will be for your stock and upgraded tires.

Good luck!

Rig:
2001 QC 4.7L V8
Mods:
3" PA, nerf bars, grill guard, rear bumper guard, roof rack, chrome diamond plate rail guards, Rancho 9000X shocks, tail light guards, HAM antenna, retractable CB antenna, 4x130W offroad lights
