I was told to do the following math to figure out the total height of my tire.
Current : 265/25.4 = 10.433, *.70 = 7.3 + 17 (rim size) = 24.303" tire
Your tire : 245/25.4 = 9.64, *.70 = 6.75 + 19.5 (rim size) = 26.25" tire
Correct me if I am wrong. And my current tire does rub a little if I am backing out of my driveway while turning.
I was told even on my 2004 1/2 model to stay with 225/70/19.5's and no issues. But if I were to move up to a 245 I would need to add the 2" lift. The 225/70/19.5's Toyo 143's I think are rated right under 5000 lbs.
