    I have a 2009 TRD 4X4 OR and thats the size tire that comes factory. Don't know that there is much difference in the tire size that would warrant regearing for such a small difference. Someone will chime in soon...

    Thanks for the links and I may have to give up on local sources and try shipping from another state. I have been afraid to even look into buying online due to shipping costs of heavier items.

    Picked up a set of FJ TRD Trail Teams in Anthracite. Had the tire shop put on my stock 265/70/16's and they look good. Guess I'll drive these tires until they're out of tread. Seems like they push the tires out a bit more ~1 inch. Here's some pics.
    First one is the stock TRD Wheels with the tires on.
    Second is the profile from the front with the FJ wheels.
    Third one is with the Wheels on(Big Bird Turd on the other side so had to take this side).
    Really happy so far. Now I need to find a Step Bar and Bumper in a similar metal color. If anyone knows of any, please let me know.

    btw, All i did to find them was call my local dealer and ask them to order them. I had the part number and he said it would take 2 days. $155/each.
