Looks like yall had a good time!!!

 

Here's my new (2009) Prerunner. Pumped to be joining this community.

 

Congrats & Welcome!

 

Hey guys I need some advice. It's finally time for new tires and this time around I think I want to go bigger to match the look of the leveling kit I put on a couple months ago. So the question is, do I stick with the 16 inch rim and just slap a bigger tire on there or do I sell my wheels and get bigger wheels so I don't have a tire with an excessively large sidewall. I don't do a ton of off-roading and nothing like rock crawling or anything where I would need to air down. What do you think I should get and include any pics if possible.

 

Keep 16. Throw some 285s on there and be done

 

Stealth custom series F5s
Matte dark bronze
17x9
3.5 backspace
-38 offset

With Nitto Ridge Grapplers
285/70/17

 

Would I loose any handling or acceleration?

 

Or you could do that. Fuck me those are so nice. They get better with each pic posted like an aged scotch

 

I feel like that would be slowing me down a lot...

 

Lol!!! Thanks my man.

I still can't get over them

​

 

285s?

 

I ran 265's on a 5" lift for over a year with no fux



285s just look better in my opinion, dont even notice them anymore while driving. Feels normal

 

No the stealth custom series and everything

 

Nah you won’t notice much difference really. Just don’t throw 295-315 E Rated on and you will be fine

 

The SCS wheels are actually lighter than my OEM TX Edition ones.

Feels much better, just trying to help.​

 

About how much for all that would we be talking?

 

IIRC the set of 5 wheels was ~ $950.00

But the Ridge Grapps were pretty pricey

Set of 5 with warranty on each one was ~ $1400

 

So just putting on 285-75-r16's would be much cheaper

 

Without having to buy new wheels, sure it would be a LOT cheaper lol.

BUT, you might have to run wheel spacers to get the 285s off the UCA.

(depending on offset/backspace of your current wheels)​

 

Well got new tires, brakes, ext brake lines, and found out both of my front wheel bearings are bad. Shes a sitting duck now, but she sure is purty!
