None. You will have rubbing with any wheel that'd fit and not cause interference with the balljoint. 5.5" would be the best chance and would basically be like my current setup (that i rub with 245/75/17, so the 265s will rub more due to the width)... I wouldn't go with 5" unless you're willing to remove the HVAC lines OR it's a street queen, otherwise your tire will remove them for ya on the trail.
