Hello!
I currently have 265/70/16 on. Wondering if I could get away with a larger tire. Considering a 265/85/16. Same width, but more height.
I have a Toytec Boss 2.0 installed with UCAs and leafs on a 2019 TRD Offroad. I'm trying to avoid CMC of any kind. I don't mind some trimming of plastics.
I have attached some pictures.
Thanks!

Between the lift and the adjustable SPC upper control arms (especially), you’ll be good to go with a 265/85r16.
 

This page will give you a good visualization of it too, if you’re curious.
 
So, I actually have 265 75 16 on. Don't know why I thought 265 70 16.
Anyhow, I'm getting 285 75 16 put on as we speak. I know I'll have to do some trimming, but I really want the extra height.

The trimming you would have to do is easy and not noticeable from the side of the truck, if you do need to trim.
 
I actually just put 285 75 16 on. KO2s. There's no rubbing forward or reverse on pavement at full tilt. Now, offroad may be a different story, we shall see.

Ughhhhh. I'm on 265/75/16 KO2's. I rub full turn.
It's the damn wheels and spacers. But I like it.
