    Wheels and Tire upgrade for my Tacoma is literally the hardest decision of my life.

    Let's see some more Falkens on 16s please.

    Is there an equivalent to 275/65/18 Wildpeaks in a 16" wheels?

    They performed well. The snow was a bit sticky that day, as you can see. They clear just fine once you get moving.

    Will someones running the 265/75-16 on a mostly stock truck check on how close the Falkens are to the UCA? Its my understanding they run a bit wide.

    You're really going to split hairs over a 10mm difference in width? That's less than 3/8".

    I think there a big difference --- in overall diameter.... 275s are 1.6" more than stock and 285s are 2.15" more than stock (on Ko2s). Seems like a good bit a difference to me especially considering the tight fitment in the 3rd gen wheel wells. Can mean the difference in many different components and modding to get alignment and fit right.

    I think these measurements are worth considering in the Falken or any tire upgrade.

    But that only translates to .8" - 1.07" of height respectively.

    I've got 275s and from the side you can't tell the difference vs 285s. From the rear there is a noticable difference in width.

    As far as 265 vs 275, 275 is a weird size and not many mfrs produce it. 265s will be just as capable and the visual difference is negligible.

    I was under the front end replacing my fogs earlier today and I looked specifically at the clearance between tire and UCA.
    While I didn't get an exact measurement,
    Clearance didn't appear to be concerning so I didn't look any further.
    I'm on a stock sr5 and have had this size mounted for just shy of two weeks.

    A couple things
    My 265/70-17s are hitting the air dam in certain specific turning situations. I'll either mod the air dam or just take it off.

    Thanks a bunch. I currently have the Cooper AT/W in 275/65-16 on my '14 with the 5100's and stock rims and I can barely squeeze my fingers through at the fingernail. If the Falkens are any wider this could be a problem.

    How do these compare to the stock Goodyear with Kevlars in the snow? Might be getting new tires for Christmas and was wondering if I should swap out before or after our ski trip. FTR I have actually liked the Goodyears in fresh powder and packed snow.

    Have yet to take him in the snow we don't get much snow here and you know that.
    But there are some posts earlier in here that people have taken them up to the snow and really enjoy them.
