I have a 2000 Chevy Silverado LS 4x4 Z71, its a shortbed sportside. Its Silver metallic. It has the factory suspension and the factory aluminum wheels. I currently has LT245/75R16s and I was wondering if LT285/75R16s would clear with out rubbing or very little rubbing, the are Cooper Radial ATs.

Thanks for your help.

I'm not at all familar with the new tire sizes. You'll need to get the true size in inches and see what the difference is.

285/75r16 tires will fit perfectly with no modifications and there is no rubbing :cool:

Sweet truck, i like those tires, thanks for all the help. That baby looks good. Did you notice any change in the gas milage, the speedodometer should be about 65 when your 60, right??

Thanks.
Mileage change was minute, then again I went from stock 265s.
I noticed an immediate loss of low end 'power' due to the taller tire, but that is nothing compared to how much better these look on the new body style pickups :cool:

I had my tire height recalibrated with my HPP3 for a few years and now with my new programmed PCM, it is calibrated as well :D

I'm on my 2nd set of these tires, got 50K out of the first :cool:
