I just sold my 2005 Tundra crew cab and picked up a 2016 Tundra TRD PRO double cab.Very clean low miles truck! From what I have read on line this truck came from the factory with a 1.5” lift due to the Bilstein shock system and suspension. Question:What tire size can I safely move up to without getting any rubbing or having to use spacers? It has the original 18” black TRD PRO wheels.Stock is a 275/65/18 or a 32.5” tire.The guy I bought it from has 275/70/18 BFG’s on it that need to be replaced, they are a 33” tire.I would like to go to a 34” 285/70/18 tire if possible. Feedback is appreciated.
Those tires look great on the Nissan. That is a prettyLarge jump in tire size to not get any rubbing. I will keep researching the forums and see what plays out. I do not want to lift the truck, just get as large a tire as possible for more clearance in off road situations.
I would browse the Tundra forums a bit. I would bet they have a tire size “sticky thread” because the question probably comes up so often. I know the Nissan Frontier forum does. And because it does, I just put a new set of BFG AT KO2, 285 70r 17s on today. Stock size for my SV version is 265 70r 17s. So far No rubbing.
