265/75 16 on a stock 1st gen?

Im wondering if anyone has experience running this tire size on a stock TRD AC 4x4. I know what the tire size thread says about max size but it seems like most people are running larger than what’s recommended. Any input or pictures would be appreciated.

 

I used to run them on my 2000 limited TRD access cab 4x4. I didn't have any problem,but I did install a leveling kit up front. I went back to 265/70/16 tires. just a preference.

 

Can you explain your preference?

 

thats what came stock on my 2000 trd offroad extra cab sr5. i leveled mine with 2 inch spacers in the front and am running 305 70r17 tht rubs on just the plastic in the front bumper wich i trimmed. i do have a 1.5 inch spacers as well

 

So in short, I won’t have any problems running 265/75 on stock suspension?

 

most likely not

 

He is correct.

 

I’m still wondering what you meant by preference? I guess I would just like to know why stock size over slightly larger. Is it just so minimal there’s no point?

 

The 265/70/16 tires are a little wider but probably 3/4" shorter than the 265 /75/16. The 265/75/16 tires are more narrow than the 70 series but they are taller than the 70 series.that's what I mean by preference.hope that helps

 

I'm actually running 285 70r17 not 305 70 r17 with 2 inch leveling, I have a little rubbing but only because the 1.5 spacers I have
