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 myself doubt you'll see any changes at all. Especially with the Dmax.
He won't notice any difference. I replaced the junk OEM 265/70/18 Goodyears on my 2500HD with 275/70/18s shortly after I bought it.
At the time, there were exactly two different tires in the OEM 265 size to choose from. I went 275s to open up the tire choices.
