Will Trailer Fenders for 16 Wheels Work for 285/75R16 Tires

Question

Question:

Will the fenders meant for 16inch wheels, fit a 285/75R16? I know you say the fenders go off the wheel size, but the tire size is pretty large, so I just want to verify. Thank you

You will not have any issues using a fender for 16" wheels like the Single Axle Trailer Fender # HP46VR or Tandem Axle Trailer Fenders # HP84VR with your 285/75R16 tires. Although your tires may be large, they are only 1/2" taller when compared to a more typical 235/85R16 tire. The bigger difference comes from the tire width, but that won't impact the fenders.
