1/2 on some, free on some and some, none at all. The higher the tire, the less the shipping. Nothing with free shipping for that price.

Dang, I was going to get the 245 in an ATR. I loved my Coopers.

my 2000 has 255/75/16 and no lift.. as far as I know, it looks to sit too low to have a lift on it

Post a pic of the truck and we'll tell you if it has a lift. For a rough idea, the lip of my front wheel well with the OME 2" lift measures 34" off the ground when measured at the center of wheel. Prior to the lift it measured about 31".

You have a D2. the 245 suggestion was for a D1.

Yes, different stock sizes so different max sizes.
As a general rule you can go UP one size with no mods.
Stock size for a DI is 235/70R16, plus size ONE is 245/75R16.

So if stock size for a DII is 255/70R16 then you could go to a 265/75R16.
NOTE:I do NOT know the stock size for a DII.

The D1 and D2 use a slightly different suspension setup that allows for the different tire size under stock suspension.
