    Well got stock trd offroad rims and tires (265/70/16) and really wanted to upgrade to a 17" wheel with some 275's or 285's.. But the way money and things are going right now i believe i'm going to have to stay with the stock 16's and upgrade my tires.. Kind of stinks cause i didn't want to buy 16" tires then turn around and want 17" wheels later on down the road but i guess it has to happen..

    Anywayyy enough rambling on, 285/70/16's on my stock wheels sound good or what would be a good BFG AT size to get (Billies set at .85, Eibach Coils, AAL)

    285/70/16 is a pretty odd size. with the 2.45" of lift you have, you could add wheel spacers and trim some plastic and fit 285/75/16's, or you could stick with 265/75/16 and not have to trim anything or get wheel spacers.
