Question 245/75/16 tires

Has anyone put 245/75/16 inch tires on a superduty 4x4 diesel?

Do they look to small?

If it came with 265's then keep that size or else the speedo and computer will be off and I'm guessing they will be around an inch smaller.

Another consideration is to check the load rating on the tire ... if it's too low ... it's another reason not to put them on ur rig.

The first # is the with of the tread the next is the ratio for the sidewall height and the last is the rim diameter.

Why would you want to go smaller??

Personally, I think the 265s look too small.
