I have 2012 3500 SRW and run the original 265 70 R18 most of the year. But I also have 275 70 R18 winter tires. My 275's rub the plastic wheel well behind the front tires if I turn sharply. My winter tires are studded Coopers. Hope this helps.
Bummer....I have the same truck only a 2500. I was planning on switching to the 275 size because of the greater selection of available tires. Is yours a 4wheel drive?
Hard to understand how a increase of only a 1/4" radius - 1/2" in diameter would rub. Anyone else having clearance issues on the 275 size on the GMs?
I put a Cognito Leveling kit on my 2012 2500HD and I never rubbed with 275 Nitto EXO Grapplers. I don't rub with the same leveling kit on 2015 3500 gas or Deisel.
