Can you run 235/85 and 265/75 on the same truck

You are talking about a 0.3% difference in tyre size. It is not going to have any impact on your transfer case or traction control. These same people that are telling you not to do it are running different tyre pressures in the front tyres compared to the back. These differences in tyre pressures will have more of an impact that the difference in size that you are talking about.

By these people responding, please make sure that you only ever drive in a straight line as you will blow up your transfer case if you turn a corner and some wheels travel further than others. What bullshit.

But what you need to check out is the actual size of the tyres rather than what is printed on the side. Look up the manufacturers website and look at the actual specs. They should list the actual rolling diameter, revolutions per mile, or something similar.

Intereting statement, I would agree because what if you tires wear un- evenly? Like they all do. The front right will wear faster than any other because these Diso's need an alignment almost every year. so if you run that tire bald then I have transfer case problems, possible but not likely..

If you are asking if you can do it because that is all you have to make it 2-3 miles to the tire shop. Then I would say, not a big deal, I have done it. I do not drive aggressive and I took care of the tire, swapped it out, and no problems...

If you are asking because you want to drive long distances and for quite some time I would take notice that by asking this question, you already know the answer...
