max tire size for 2.7

vtragweed · 05-04-2009, 03:34 PM

im thinking about doing a small lift for bigger tires, anyone know what the max size is for tires without doing a lift for the 2.7. without changing the gearing?

EquinsuOcha · 05-04-2009, 03:37 PM

I wanna say it's 265/75 without a lift on stock wheels.

Do you have a base or prerunner? Manual or Auto?

I got 265/75 toyo mt's ,and the truck is fine with no issues, Slight power loss from the weight however.

Same here: 265/75/16 BFG All Terrains.

Slight loss of power. Nothing major. Also consider clearance. I had to remove the front mud flaps because the tires rubbed them ever so slightly. Clearance will vary per brand and style though.

Krp2nite · 05-06-2009, 08:52 AM

265/75 mud tires here.

Pep boys cheap!

only a little power loss / mpg loss but no problems with the size or overall performance. Definately gets me places my dunlops wouldn't dare...

I have been told by a local tire shop that 235/75 15's will be the max for the 15x6 wheels.

olehipi · 05-07-2009, 04:37 AM

what about for the base 5 lug?

T@co_Pr3runn3r · 05-07-2009, 05:07 AM

285/60/18 NTGs lifted 2.5 fr/1.5 rr with 5100s/AAL....no more rubbin & no gear change. Heavy ass tire/rim combo. I'm sure there is some pwr loss but they came on the truck when I got it so unable to speak to how much pwr loss. Goes just fine tho, still gettin 20 mpg.

I'm running 30x9.5, but I think you might be able to get 31x10.5 to fit with a lift.

olehipi · 05-07-2009, 08:59 AM

That's without a lift? No rubbing?

How do you find the billys set at 2.5??? Stiff at all?? Thinking of jacking mine up there and getting an aal or leaf pack

NTGs are VERY light weight compared to other ATs. Exactly why I am getting them next

No lift and no rubbing with the 30 x 9.5's. To keep the tires from rubbing, you have to remove the small black box from the front wheel wells.

Guys that have the Readylift kit for the 5 lug can run 31 x 10.5.

Check out this link for some posts about it over on Toyota Nation. Check out pages 2 and 3.

Fuckin love it! Rides nice as hell. No harsh nothin! Firm & controlled but not bouncy or jarring at all. I have the non TSB 3 leaf pack with the Toytec TSB 1.5 AAL, it's great, far far better than the base model tokico nonsense that it had.
