Largest Tire Size Running Bilstein 6112/5160?

I am looking into adding duratracs in the next few months and am really considering a suspension upgrade first to achieve larger tires. From what I recall the largest on stock rims for the OR is 265/75/16.

Will adding 5100s or even 6112/5160s allow me a larger tire without rubbing or should I just buy the 265's and leave it be? Would I need a leaf upgrade as well to maintain a slight rake? Sorry if this has already been asked. I promise I used the search function first.

 

You can probably run 255/85r16's... tallest tire i believe that can fit stock.

 

Do you know of any tires that would be comparable in performance to the duratrac that fit that size? Mud, snow, and ice are big factors for me.

 

You can use whatever size you want as long as you change your blinker fluid regularly

 

Sub'd. I'm looking into the same set. Need best tires available

 

In the future don't use the search here. Use google to search. There's a million threads AND ANSWERS on the stuff you're asking hence my dipshit reply

 

I am only able to find threads regarding 2nd gens. Is the information the same for 3rd?

 

Yes because Toyota did not change the frame or the suspension

 

See my links in my signature below.

 

Thank you very much! I will read those over.

I did notice on the size thread Smitty left it doesn't mention 255's. Has it been confirmed that 255/85/16s do not rub under any conditions? It looks like the Cooper ST Maxx tires come in that size. Does anyone have experience with the Cooper compared to Duratracs?

 

I've seen some say 255s rub a little

 

When you a little do you mean only when fully exerting the shocks/mud flaps when turning or needs trimming?

Also on a more important note you mentioned these dampening the rear end howl when feathering? Has this stood true since that post or did it come back? I hate that howl...

 

Don't recall specifics but like my link says the safest tire sizes have been listed for a reason. Proceed at own risk beyond that

 

Fair enough. Diff howl?

 

Yes I have it.

 

Is it still dampened post upgrade to 6112/5160s? Or did it eventually come back full force?

 

It's definitely lessened in volume

In addition to above thread Wheel offset will dictate more if rubs gonna happen or not.

 

How much would you say percentage-wise? 50? This is actually a huge selling point for me.

 

Interesting. Would it be correct to assume the 1" lift on the pro has something to do with the perfect fit?
