yeah i just looked at it some more and its close i actually held it up there and it forsure looked like it was gonna rub but the 265 was not on the spare rim just held it up there. i just put new rubber on( do to miss allighnment cause of cranked torsion bars) and saved the best tire from the old set. i also just thought of this! my ats diff cover would probably be covered more. well thanx for the replies but the 245 is staying on. i only worry in case i get a flat and wreck my gears do to a smaller tire.
