Choosing tire size: 265 or 275

Cool, I love the silver, dealer near me has a longbed off road silver coming in. It's tempting. I got a manual pro but it's my daily and sometimes you just want to kick back and not be bothered with that at my age.

 

Great looking truck. One of the best DCLB I have seen. Nice job.

 

Go 255s, you don’t even need a lift to fit them.

 

Thanks. I have a short bed version of your truck on 6112’s with around 2” of lift front and back. Was thinking of throwing on a 1” lift spacer to raise the front in order to fit 33’s with the gloss 4Runner wheels. Are you on stock UCA’s?

 

Yes stock uca. Dont go that big of a spacer, you don't need it.

 

Go 285's looks way better imo.

I have 285's on 8" 0 offset wheels, no CMC needed.

 

I went with the 265's. Pictures coming soon

 

This is on 265s with -25 offset. Rubbed on fender and had to cut a little bit.

 

@White_Truck

I like the 275/70R17s on your Sport.

A little bit of Pokey is fine with me...what off-set will get 1/2 to 1" pokey?

 

not too sure but probably 0 to -10 will do the trick. But you could run into more rubbing issues the more negative you go.

 

@White_Truck

I've added BushWacker Fender Flares and initially wanted to go 33/35s but the more time I have to stew, the more I think the TRD Lift Kit will do.

Some folks have put 285s with the TRD Lift but I think that's pushing it. Heck, 275s might be pushing it too but you verified there's no rubbing.

EDIT: If tagging you is a problem, let me know.

 

no worries on the tag!

yeah when I bought the truck with the Trd lift the dealer tried telling me that 285s fit but I think that’s a lie lol

yeah the 275s are definitely pushing it in my opinion you wouldn’t want to go any bigger. I’m not the kind of guy that would want to do any modifying or cutting on a new truck, no matter how minor. These ones fit and even clear the valence just barely.

I’m no expert on these things but I feel the key is your offset. That’s why I went +10. The more negative it is I feel like it’s more likely to rub. Might get away with 0. It would be nice to hear from someone with this tire size but 0 offset

 

sweet tuck my guy will probably do the same!!

 

275 isn’t what I’d do personally. I’d either stick with 265s, and have a better selection of tires, or jump to 285s and get the saw out. I personally went to 255/85/16 (Equivalent would be 255/80/17) because I wanted a taller, more aggressive tire on stock suspension.

 

Ok, cool about the tag!

I'm leaning towards the 275s...and keeping my OEM 17s...unless, the width needs to be changed...in that case, the research begins to find the correct size wheel to fit 275/70R17s.

 

Been happy with the 265/70 16's on my 2020 sr5. They were originally for my tundra when i owned it.

 

Beautiful! What wheels and how wide are they?

 

265/70/70 on 8.5" wide -10mm offset wheels. Kinda flush with the fender at the top of the wheel opening. I get some rub along the back of the wheel opening at the bottom. Going to lift a little with Bilsteins.

 

16 X 8 6 X 139.7 3.50" -25mm SCS F5 - I sold them and I am now on 285/70/17 17x9 -25.

 

I've run 265, 270 and 275 17's on my truck. 265 70 17's was my favorite so far. I am wanting to try some of the 16's next.
