bigger tires

[TMAC]

i just bought a 2022 tacoma trd off road lunar gray has stock 16 rims and 265/70R16 tires. i want bigger more agressive tire but like the stock rims. what tires can i put with a leveling kit? probably go with a 2" front 1" rear ??

With the stock 7" offroad wheels I wouldn't go wider than than the 265 to avoid debeading, but it's common to go taller with a 75 series tire to gain an an inch. (from a 30.6" tire to a 31.6" tire).

Overall tire size would be 265/75R16 in that case.

I'd also level the front first and then see if the rear needs to come up unless you also want the rear raised. Taller tires will make the truck look bigger.

Coilovers are nice because you can dial in the exact height / rake you want, but with spacers you're at the mercy of their thickness. On this truck a 1" spacer over the spring hat will give you 2" of lift.

There’s a ton of additional info in this thread too (which corroborates @drizzoh ‘s recommendation):

Tire Size Fitment and Lift

I figured i would throw an end all be all in here to settle the age old question "what tire size will fit". This is my personal opinion and experience, taking into consideration measurements of the wheel well with the cab mount in mind. You do not have to follow this chart if you have plans to...
