295/75R/16 Help

Hey guys, I see mostly posts about 285//75R/16 and 305's and 315's... Question is plain and simple. Will a 295/75R/16 fit on a standard 16 inch Hummer rim and not rub anywhere?
I know the tire thing has been beaten to death, but like I said I habe not seen any postings for the 295/75R/16. :emb:
Thanks Guys.

That's Frumaker tire size, but he's running aftermarket wheels with spacers. He seems to not have much trouble when we are out.

305 is wider then 295, so I don't see why there would be an issue. 315 are even wider and taller

A friend of mine did it on an 06 and had no problems. I looked really good but the only drawback to that size is a very limited selection.

I had that size at one time with no issue. As has been mentioned, it's an oddball size and can be tough to locate. For example, if you cut a tire it can be a day or two to get a replacement in.

It may rub on the swaybar (mine did) but many of the larger tires do. It's not a safety issue unless of course you like to do high-speed donuts at full lock.

Thanks for the info... Maybe I should just stick with the 285/75R/16 when I upgrade. Those will work with no problems or rubbinhg, at least that is what I understand from other posts.
