    C60184F7-EBB2-468A-8569-6C1CED0D2A56.jpg Just spotted this sweet 3rd gen and wanted to know what kind of ARE shell and size tires (approximate)this might be? The suspension seemed stock and did not have Trdpro badging.

    On stock wheels. Would larger 265 tires have this kind of offset/stance?

    No, 265 width on stock rims would not poke out that much. My guess is they're 285 width tires on aftermarket rims with some lift. Doesn't look lifted because those are probably 33 inch tires

    No idea, but why the fuck would you put on off road tires and lift and then have those stupid steps handing down?

    From the sidewall tread it looks like they may be those pro comp tires the dealer slaps on them. If so then he probably has the dealer spacer lift as well.

    arent those the stock ones? Maybe he needs the step for kids and such or just hasn’t gotten around to sliders yet. Either way, the rig is sweet

    I think you’re right. Maybe z2. I like the integrated tail light.

    ARE Z Series or REVO. I have the Evolve which is similar but doesn't have the flush windows on the side. Same lift door though. They are sharp.

    I say those are wider than 285’s. 315’s more likely.

    Damn, that’s much larger than I was willing to try on a daily driver. Anyone else running this wide? What’s the tire spec?

    There's no way. I have 285/70R16s with a front level on my 2nd gen on 16x8 wheels and they look every bit as wide.
    My guess, he has a 3 inch lift with aftermarket 17 or 18 in wheels and 285 width Pro Comp M/Ts based on the sidewall of the tire. If he had 315s he would have cut fenders and really bulging looking tires. Maybe, just maybe, he has 305/60R18s, but those look like a 35 does on a Tundra on our Tacomas.
