Default Tire size.

My 95 flareside 4x4 has 265/75/R15 as the original size. What size tire is very close to that? I mean I want some A/T's but they don't make any in that size..

Offhand, 275/70/R15, 285/75/R15
I had 16s. Went to 17s. Old broke vet. Not a marine, but adapted and overcame.
Old Ford Expedition had 17s. Same but 12mm lugs, versus 14. Step drill. Get 1 w v v few steps cuz they go deeper. Steps cuz they self center and don't chatter the bit & mess your hole. 1/2 way in, flip wheel and repeat. Hub caps won't work. Meh. 4 wheels, 100$. Just 1 option.

Lil more $ - new axles w 6 bolt pattern. Depending on your rear end ratio, and what YOUR goal i$, more option$. 🤔 Slightly sorry I didn't go to 6 lug when 1 axle went bad, thx to the 'xyz#@!&#' PO.
