    YES, the extra 10mm width isn't going to be a problem & it's only about 3% taller.

    Try this, it alows you to 'play with' various size tyres to see the difference

    Remember that it will throw out the speedo a bit and you will lose a little power due to the slightly bigger diameter.

    245's will fit without a problem...265/75's will still fit but will rub the factory bumper and the steering arms.
