Was able to fit 265/65/R17s on my stock rims & stock standard lift on my WH Grand.
With clearance on articulation and full lock?
Triple-check clearance with the pinch weld behind the front wheel well inner guards, and with the pinchweld for the rear door seals.
They can ruin a tyre pretty quickly, especially if you hit a few sharp dips in a road at speed.
My 265/70R17 MTs have chunks missing from the tread lugs, and that's with a ~50mm lift and AEV Pintlers.

Yeah no issues at all so far. There is only a couple of mm space from the IFS bolt but still clears it. It's close to the pinch weld but haven't needed to "mod" it yet I got Pirelli ATRs. Pretty happy with them so far
