265 75 15 are actually just 30's . 265 75 16 are 31's though heres a good site to figure it all out on. http://www.ringpinion.com/Calc_RPM.aspx

Actually 265x75 r15 is 30.6x10.4..265x75r16 is 31.6x10.4 so the 265x75r15 is closer to a 31x10.5 tire..since most 31" tires are more like 30.8 and not a true 31"..

IMO, all tires should be measured in inches!! It would work great, and us idiots that don't "get" the whole conversion game would know WTF to look for!!
