    I have a 06 Double Cab 4x4 that has stock tires on it. It is time to get new tires, and I want to go for a larger size. I am looking at getting some new wheels and tires. My current tire size is 265/65R17. What are the biggest wheel and tire sizes I can go to without compromising timing and having to do a lot of modifications to the suspension?

    I'm doing something similar on mine (but w/ Tacoma rims). Should get it back today. You have any rubbing?

    The shop was all finished up with it, and on the phone with me, when he put it in reverse on a bit of a hill and heard something rub.

    That seems to be one of the biggest observations from 1GT owners with larger tires and/or wheels with non-OEM-like offsets/backspace: Rub at full lock, in reverse.
