Do you know the actual measured tire height on the vehicle? I know what the charts say, but the specs and the measuring tape are two different things.

this size is a close match to the 265 75 r16E.

what is different is the snow tire being an 85 a narrower tire.

I am sure it will fit what is important is all tires should be the same size and of the same wear to protect the 4wd drive train from damage.

load range is about 3,ooolbs which is a very good amount for a 1500.
