    Hey folks I was wondering if anyone knows the biggest tires that can be put on 2019 TRD Sport 4x4 DC without lifting the truck and keeping the 17in wheels. Current are 265/65/17.
    I haven't ruled out a leveling kit but don't think I'll go that route. I don't do off road but like the appearance of bigger and tougher rubber. Lol.
    Thanks

    You'd have to get some some chopping and cutting done.
    Same truck as yours. I didn't lift my truck.
    I have stock height although I replaced my rear shocks with Fox 2.0's.
    I put 285/70/17 tires on 17" ray10 wheels on mine.
    I had a lot of rubbing, and I had to take my truck to a shop to get professional CMC done, and trim my inner fender wells.
    Amount of cutting and chopping can be reduced if you lift conservatively.
    Like you, no hero stuff. Just regular driving. I did it mostly for the aggressive looks and stance.
    See below difference between 285's and 265's, and my truck. Still has taco lean.

    $150. This was a few years ago. My truck is a 2016. Before you ask, No, I didn't buy the CMC plates. They cut and installed and welded their own plates for the job. Did all the trimming etc.

    I am not going to lift my truck nor am I planning to down the road. I would like to replace my stock tires but keep my stock Sport rims. The only thing that is keeping me from replacing my stock tires to something more aggressive is the rubbing. I hear different perspectives and opinions but each person either say it will rub or it will not. It's too hard to get a definite answer. I am following this thread to see what others input is.

    Some people report slight rubbing with 265/70/R17, but mine clear without issue. I have stock sport suspension, but about -10 more offset in the wheels than stock.

    Cool man, I have about 3k on my set of 265/75/16 wild peaks and I’ll probably go to 285s after I go though these

    This is such an annoying subject! Research 1st before creating the another one of these 10 thousand threads.

    you basically have to cut or chop anything above a 265. End of story.
