Wheel/tire question

I have been looking at TRD Pro wheels Tacoma/4Runner for a while now. I really like the look and found a set that has LT285/70R17 tires from a 4 runner. I have spend some time on the tire posts here but want to hear from folks running something like this size. Any thoughts or issues?

 

Is it just a leveling kit on your truck?

 

Sidenote: fine looking truck and setup you have there.

 

Thank you! We love it. I have Fox 2.0 on it leveled up front and a bit higher in the back

 

Did you already buy the wheels? Those have a pretty high offset and they are narrow. I’d go with the AGP replicas, less offset and wider.

 

No I have not bought anything just doing some marketplace looking. So really an 6x5.5 fits but need to take into account offset and size? What offset works best on these trucks if anyone knows? Thanks.

 

Check out this thread compiled by @shifty` for all things FGT. Zero in on the wheel section.

Highly recommend you check out the thread @G_unit3000 shared with you, the wheels/suspension section specifically, it may shed light on the questions you asked and more.

Not saying that because I'm the poor sucker who got conned into compiling/posting it, thus taking ownership of maintenance and the 'Tundra guru' reputation that unfortunately seems to have come with it, but because it covers every aspect of (I hope) what you'll need to know in this choice.

I can't agree more with @KTM_AJ421 regarding opting for AGP's option over OEM, far better backspacing. FYI, if it helps, IIRC the 5-spoke split OEM wheels are 5" backspace, and you don't want much more than that for sake of rubbing.

That said, I'm also incredibly sad you're getting rid of one of the best damn looking OEM wheels ever made for a truck. I'd buy the other wheels, swap their tires over, and sell the TRD Pro wheels to offset the purchase cost. Just sayin'.

Great looking truck btw, and welcome to the forum!
