Puny Tires..Need Bigger

I have a 05 2wd access cab and dont know what tires i can get on them.. It came with 215/70/R15 which are just way to small.. My sisters car tires are bigger...lol..Does anyone know what the biggest tire i can fit on there is with and without a lift...and also with and without new wheels..Thanks

 

I'm not 100% sure here, but I think you can fit 235/70's with the stock set up. You may want to double check first though. You can go to a tire website, discount or tire rack, and they'll usually show a +0 size or what your options are.

 

Some place someone posted that 235/75/15's made the truck look better without having to modify anything. That's what I'm putting on in a month or so when these little donuts are shot.

 

Sure you don't want to consider a lift? Bigger tires, especially the max size you can fit, will really fill the wheel well. It might look better with a little lift to balance it out....

 

ya i have been calling around to different tire shops and toyota dealers and they all tell me different things. Discount tire said i could get 275/75/15 and a used shop said 265/75/15 and goodyear said 235/70/15...and a toyota guy said probably 245/65/15..so i havent really been able to tell who is right..but anything above 245/65/15 seems unrealistic without any modifications...but i am thinking that yall sound right and that the 235 or 245 sound about right..does anyone know of some cheap lift kits i could get..maybe a 3 inch..little strapped for cash but really am tired of my truck looking so puny...my girlfriend drives a 07 2500 hd silverado with extened cab and bed and big tires..kinda imasculating..lol

 

Don't know about Yota but I just want a little more tire for looks.
If I wanted big and lifted I would have bought another Pre-Runner like I had in '99.
I may have to buy another in the future just for the V-6.

 

ya i wish i had gotten a bigger pre runner but i sorta inherited this from my dad when he got a new truck because i was my 98 jimmy got totaled in a wreck..i eventually plan on getting a bigger pre runner but dont have that kind of money right now..

 

Get something like this and you can run a 31" tire. You should be able to do the install yourself, it isn't too difficult.

ya that looks prety good..but i just found out from a friend that got new tires tat he has some 33 that are decent tread he will sell me for $10 a tire so does anyone know what i should do to get that size on their.or would it be to expensive

 

well i am not getting the 33's because he said they had decent tread but two of them were bald as fuck and the other two arent to much better....

 

That sux on the tires. Post up pics after you get it all set up. I know where you are coming from with the "puny tires". I have the DC LB and it kinda looked like a grampa truck. After the lift and some new wheels I like it much better now.

 

Do you have a PreRunner or just a regular 2WD?

 

its just a regular 2wd...ya but i will definetly post pics once im set up..ill put some up of what it looks like now so you can see what i am talking bout...

 

yep, if a 5 lug mini, you won't clear 33s, even with a lift... you can always go LT and push some 32s...

 

i wouldnt clear 33's even if i got like a 6 inch lift???ill probably for now do a 3 inch with 31's but its nice to know my options

 

new body 4x4s and prerunners barely clear 33s with a 6 inch lift... can't see how a 5 lug mini would... plus, i don't recall anyone making a drop bracket lift for 5 lug mini trucks?

 

ok appreciate the info...ill just stick with the 31's

 

here are som pics of my truck..still havent got a lift or tires yet since i posted the thread : (

 

dont forget thats more tire that that 4cyl is going to be pushing
not not a big deal but slower at lights
I had 31.1050/15s on my 2000
