SOURCE: will 265/75 r16 tires fit on 2000 chevy silverado

Well I would say yes if it is the new body style and 4x4.Even 2WD you may have to turn up the torsion bars then get the front end aligned.The rims don't matter how tall just wide.I have 2002 4x4 1500 with that size,but not sure what was stock on mine.I also installed the after market torsion keys that will allow for up to 33"tires.Well hope this helps and good luck.

SOURCE: can I change my tires to a 265 R16 size

1st number is tread width (mm)265
r =speed rating
2nd is wheel size, in inches 16
the rule of thumb re tread width, is the tread should not exceed the inner wheel width,measured inside the wheel/tyre sealing area by more then 20mm.
otherwise car will tend to sway when steered for moose test.so check your wheels first...
r rating only good upto 100 mph intermitently...

I have a 2001 pt cruiser needs rims and tires size on it now are235/45/R17 size on chart inside driver door is 195/65/R15 or 205/55/R16 not sure which size to buy please help thankyou

The number after the r is the rim size. According to your post you have 17 inch rims. Stock rims were 15 inches or optional 16 inches. Unless you are putting a different size rim on then you need a17 inch tie to fit your current rim

Will 16 inch tires fit on a 97 ford windstar

If the stud pattern and off set is the same they will fit on. The problem is that regulation requires the ride height to be maintained which means that you will have to fit a lower profile tyre . For example if you use 15 " 205/95-r15 tyres then you may have to go to 205/65 r16 tyres . Talk with a tyre shop and discuss the legal requirements as far as insurance goes with a wheel size change

Can you replace 205/55/r16 tires with 225/60/r16 tires on a 2004 Saturn Ion 3

Yes the new tires will fit, but being the new tires are larger slight rubbing may happen when you turn sharp.

What tires fit a Toyota Solara 2002

Standard size is 205/65R15.
Optional size is 205/60R16.
205/55R16 may not be close enough but a tire store should be able to tell you for sure. You would have to have the optional 16in wheels already on the car.

I need winter tires, i was told to get 215 70 r16, will 225 55 r16 fit?

no, tire should match the size recommended by mfg. tire should match what the sticker on the inside of drivers door states. this will keep speedometer correct.

I want to put 225 60 r16 snows on my 2000 sonoma which currently has 205 60 r16 all seasons...i am putting the 2 snows on the back. any problems other than the speedometer and possible abs sensor?

There should not be any problems unless the truck is 4 wheel drive. Then there will be binding and possible damage. But is sounds like its 2 wheel drive.

Steering noise

The noise you are hearing is most likely from the tires. If you like the the tires try wheel spacers or if its a 4x4 try cranking the torsion bars, but make sure you do them equally
