    They will easily fit a stock D2. I run 245/75-16 with no problem at all, just have to watch the speed cameras (do you have them in Canada?) as the speedo will slightly under read

    Thanks. I think it's a good size for this car that I do not discard in future. The 245/70/16 is a good option too to do not have lost of performance (gears practically not affected). The 245/75/16 (that fit without issues) are the bigger increment in size on stock suspensions, with a little increment of gears ratio. There is also, the 255/70/16 which some people likes too, and do not require any lift.

    I cant speak for 235/75-16 but my 245/75-16 is a touch tight on the bumper, the door will close, but the tread lightly "squeaks" its way across, though I also have a steel bumper which isn't standard LR. You should be able to make it work I think.

    A 235.75x16 will not touch the bumper.
    A 255.70x16 will not touch the bumper as that is what I have and I even have a cover around it.
    A 245.75x16 may just touch as another poster said.

    If you are handy , you can also flip the bracket and easily fit a 245.75x16.
    there is also a US company that makes an alloy adjuster which raises the bolt postions for the spare without flipping the bracket.
