I want to stay stock at this time with the 245/70 16 but will go up if they do not rub & no cladding mods. I was looking at BFG AT KO and Yokohama Geolander AT's.
IMO, going up to 265/70 R 16" looks a lot better...
You don't need any lift & the pic shows how slight the cladding trim is.
While it's true that your speedo will be off by a few MPH, on the plus side, your odo is recording fewer miles...


I want to thank whoever took that pic, I horked it out of someone elses gallery & have used it many times to illustrate how minor trimming can yield great results in the form of a more agressive looking VX...

Also, the most popular, quiet & all around great performing tire around here is the Nitto Terra Grappler...
