Lift, Tires, MPG Question

I am looking to purchase the icon stage 2 lift kit for my 2013 double cab tacoma. Currently it has 265/65R17 tires.
Would you recommend 265/70R17 or 275/70R17 for the lift I'm looking to get.

How bad willmitnaffect my mpg?

Where can I do the speedometer adjustment for the MPG and speed?

 

285s. And I lost about 1 mpg if I had to guess

 

285/70?

Did you have to trim?

 

Yup and yup

 

What is the biggest tire size I can get and get away without trimming?

 

265/70/17 or 255/80/17

 

265/75/16 also

 

He has 17s.

 

this^ if you dont want to trim

 

Thanks Monster! Looks like tht 265/70R17 is the way il go. Even with a lift kit, I can't go bigger?

Now wonder if it would look queer ish with a 2" lift

 

No.. you will have to trim if you go bigger.. some people claim they run bigger tires without trimming or rubbing but it seems to be hit or miss so its up to you if you wanna take that risk

 

It won't look bad at all. I ended up with right at 2" with 5100s set at 1.75. I'm running 255/75/17 which is just slightly taller than 265/70/17



There are plenty of guys running 265s with 3" of lift and their trucks look nice.

 

You will have better mpg and power with 265/70r16 vs 285. Your speedometer should be dead on, your odo will read about 4% slow, so you will be getting about 4% better gas mileage than you think.
