    Hey guys,

    Just picked up a white 2014 DCLB TRD Sport, planning on upgrading my 17in wheels and tires. I'm looking on getting the Method NV Matte Black 17x8.5 with Toyo AT2 265/70/17. Just Wondering if that will clear without having to cut, trim or lifting the truck.
    Also thinking about going down to the 16in and getting bigger tires 285/70/16. What Do you guys think?

    Thanks,

    You'll have to cut a lot with 285. 265 may require a slight bit of cutting with that size wheel

    Might want to get a small leveling or lift kit along with the rims and tires. You can grab some eibach coils that will lift your truck 2-3" for less than 200 dollars, or you could get a 2 inch leveling kit for around 50 dollars. It's not hard to install.
    Then you could fit some 33's

    Yea I was looking to just get wheels right now and lift kits later. If i decide to do 17inch wheels i would get the wheels now. If 16in then i would get them later when i use up my stock tires.

    Be careful... caliper clearance is tight on these trucks.
    A lot of 16" aftermarket wheels will rub, and the tire installers don't always catch it.

    Just ordered the nv wheels in size 16in. Any spacers required? Will 285/70/16 tires rub without a lift kit?
