It would be better to know the aspect ratio of what you were wanting to run, but if it's the same truck as your profile states then I would assume that you could indeed fit 265 tires.

265s will fit perfect, or a 32x11.5, well all depending on if you stick with a 15x8, or 16x8, you could run a 285 probably too, you wont know till you try
