There are lots of helpful threads about tires here already, like these: New Tires - All terrain or All season? want to lift and install all terrain tires
So check General Grabber and BFG All terrains, I've seen at ToyoOpen Country AT has that size, cousin recently got 'em.
But personally I'll go with Cooper Discoverer AT3, they wear real good.
I just tried to put 235/60/17 AT3's on my 2012 Forester XT and they did not fit, I'm completely stock, they rubbed in the back on the inner fender... Glad I went to a local shop instead of ordering online.
I ran them in my 2013 XT for over 50K miles. Yes they rubbed initially at the front of the rear wheel wells at full extension of the suspension, but that went away after about 5K miles.
I run 225/70R16's now. I am also lifted 2" and have different offset wheels but I don't rub at all.
@bombagee did the tire shop lower the car down and release to parking brake to roll the car forward and backward?
My parking brake played tricks on me when I first test fitted the 225/70R16s, they were touching the fender lining, until I let the car settle.
