    Okay so I have a 2008 Tacoma, the tires are 245/75/16 and i was going to buy a set of 2012 trd sport wheels which are 265/65/17. Is the bigger tire going to hurt my truck and cause a difference? Nothing is done to this truck everything is bone stock. What will happen if I put these on?

    Thanks to everyone for looking and replying!

    I currently have the 245/75/16. Putting the 265/65/17 wont make a difference or cause problems?

    Did you just get the 17" wheels or the wheels & tires? I just want to be sure you're not trying to stuff 17" wheels in a 16" tire. If you're simply slapping on the OEM wheels and tires from another Tacoma then you are good to go. No problem.

    No, I also have a 2008 and I'm running 265/65/17. I'm changing them to 265/70/17 very soon

    Unless you have 17" wheels they won't fit. If you are swapping wheels and tires you will be fine

    I am buying a whole new set of wheels and tires. I just want to make sure the new wheels and tires 265/65/17 will fit without rubbing and all that unwanted stuff. They are OEM wheels from a 2012 tacoma
