    There is only so much space in the wheel well.
    • The aftermarket wheel could work with 260/75 tires but uses up all the extra space in the wheel well.
    • Or the 275/75 tire could work with the stock wheel but uses up the extra space in the wheel well.
    I doubt if there is enough room for both of those changes.

    It sounds like you have a nice aftermarket wheel but what you really want is bigger tires. Maybe sell the aftermarket wheels and use the money toward bigger tires?

    Of course my very first Tacoma friend!! You will be the first one to know and see how it ended up. I’m taking my time to get it installed bec of the covd19 situation. Take care my friend.

    Hi there my friend! How are you doing? I hope all is well with you. Finally! I got my Ray10s with -12 mm offset installed today. I went with a size of 265/75/16 tires. And it turned out really well, the look that I was hoping for. And most importantly, NO rubbing and trimming needed with my stock suspension! I was so concerned that it would stick farther out of the fender but it stuck out maybe only 1/4 of an inch.
    So, yeah I was really happy how it turned out.
    As promised, here are some of first pictures I took early this afternoon.
    I'll take a full body shot tomorrow.IMG_3722.jpg IMG_3723.jpg IMG_3725.jpg
    Stay safe and healthy Chief.

    Following this thread, as I'm in the same boat as OP. Assuming that these guidelines to upgrading to 265/75/16 also apply to a 2020 SR DCDB?
    Also, it's pretty great that @Discount Tire is so active in this community.

    My is 2019 TRD OffRoad, I am not sure if 2020 SR version have the same suspension and stock height. If they are, then tire size 265/75/16 should have rubbing/trimming issue. Btw, the wheel size I have is 16x8 with -12 mm

    2019 and 2020 fitment is the same, so you're in the same boat :thumbsup:
