Notice how everything in life has a +/- to it. Why the same tire might rub on some Commander's but NOT others? There will be variances in the contruction of the vehicle and its body, slight differences in alignment from Commander to Commander (and the difference may be for the variance in the body). the actual point that will contact the frame rail). Finally compare the pictures of the tread, there are NOT many tires with a sqaured off tread shoulder like the BFG AT's, likely you're tire is more rounded at the shoulder (i.e. Just as important is "Tread Width", that is how wide the tire will be at the point it rubs, the dimension in the listed its size is the widest part of the tire, somewhere on the sidewall, NOT how wide it is at the tread. Remember the big one's too look at, "Overall Tire Diameter", and if common sense didn't tell you this, the "Rev's per Mile" is another good indicator, the tire with the higher rev's per mile, should be smaller in diameter. If the dimensions are the same, its reasonable to expect the results will be the same as the 245/75R17 BFGoodrich All Terrian, if they are smaller, good chance there will NOT be any rubbing, if they are larger, good chance the rubbing will be worse. Like I said, do a little internet research, go to the manufacturer's web site or a big tire seller's web site, look up the specs for the 245/75R17 BFGoodrich All Terrian and the specs for your tires and compare them. Maybe rub some paint off the frame rail, round down the edge of the shoulder of the tread a tiny bit. To me, minor rubbing means an annoyance, NOT damage, likely this tire "might" rub when you turn the steering wheel all the way to lock, and then it will only be some noise and vibration. Look at pictures of the treads and the shoulders of the tread, judge if the shoulder is more likely to rub than the tested brand/model.Ĭlick to expand.That was for a stock Commander, NOT lifted. You can look at the specs at some of the online tire sellers, compare your tire to the brand/model in the list above, see if you can tell if your tire is slightly bigger or smaller. Even the diameter can vary a bit between brands/models and still be listed as the same size. ![]() As well, the tread patterns can have different shoulders, one more rounded off on the corners and another more square and be less or more likely to rub. Remember the width is actually the tire width at its widest point (somewhere down the sidewall), NOT the width of the tread, so two tires of the exact same "listed" size can have different width treads. ![]() Other brand/models of tires might be a tiny bit smaller or bigger than the one tested and you would get less or more rubbing issues than the one tested. Likely that is why the listing for tire sizes that fit, for the one size that just barely fits, 245/75R17 also lists the Brand/Model that was tested. the actual dimensions vary a bit between brands/models. Note the dimension specs on tires are Theoretical (or rounded off to the closest standard size), i.e. ![]()
