Do these tyres fit these rims?

spurs · Jan 18, 2013

Hi all,

would a set of 265-75-16's fit on rims that currently have 235-85-16's on?

FFS....yes, no, possibly.....

It depends on what rims the 235's are on......give me a minute to get my crystal ball

That would be bloody handy if you could get your crystal ball out mate......LOL

The rims the 235's are on are are land rover boost alloys.

If you do a :search: FFS you'll find boost alloys are 8'' and the recommended min for 265's is either 7.5'' or 8'' depending on who you listen to......

Not quite, you can't stick a 205 on the same rim as a 325 just cos they are both 16". Depends on the width of the rim as 1 is skinny and other wide....
I switched to 265s from 235s and used same rim, need to be a min of 7.5" wide for 265s some people would say 8" to be safe though

So can we say that the land rover boost alloys are ok for them then?

In summary then, it's possibly a definite maybe ...
