Anyone try 235/65/17 tires on a tremor?

Trying to figure out what size tires to get when my wild peaks wear out. I want to go as big as possible without a lift or making modifications. Thanks

Isn’t that your stock Tremor tire size?

That's the stock size.

That's the stock size.

I suppose to answer OP’s question, yes, every tremor owner

Im guessing you did a typo. Stock AWD Mavericks have been seen on here with as big as 255/65r17 245/70r17 and 265/60r18s. That is between 30 and 30.8 in on various model tires. The 265s we have heard of havent reported any offroading results but the 245s and 255s have.

If a 245/70 fits at 172mm sidewall, a 225/75 with 169mm sidewall will fit.

Could I put the three tire sizes on my Ecoboost XLT AWD, that you mentioned without any rubbing etc. & how much height increase would I get? Thanks

Theoretically yes you could, however some brands of tires run large and the 245/70r17s are on the large end. From what I have heard the Falken AT3Ws dont rub, but if they do it should only be rubbing the felt and not the metal. Other brands its hard to say on the larger tires. That size gets you 0.75" of extra clearance. 245s give you 0.25" and 255s give you 0.5" extra height.

Myself on my Tremor I am gonna go for 265/65r17s, its a touch over 0.75" of and well over an inch wider. There is a stock AWD out there with 265/60r18s on it, their outer dimensions are identical. He says he doesnt rub but he hasnt been offroad.

Here is a real nice easy size calculator.
