Tire Size?

Just wondering if a 265/70/R16 would fit on an 07 Explorer? Would it be too wide at 10.7"? Thanks

I can't give you a definitive answer, but I'm running 255x70x15's on my 2000 Sport with no rubbing at all. The 265's would be less than 1/2" wider than these. Explorers have loads of wheelwell room, so my guess is they would fit fine.....
