    Looking at purchasing a set of 265/70/17 K02's mounted on a pro comp 17x9 4.75 backspace -6 offset wheel.

    Cant for the life of me figure out if they will rub on a stock dbl cab trd sport.

    Can anyone chime in and help me with this? I'm sure its been asked plenty of times. Wheel and tire calculators confuse the shit out of me.

    Cheers!

    I have 2nd gen tacoma with those wheels and tire size. On the 2nd gen they did rub, I had to do some triming. Tires are goodyear duratrac dont know if that makes a difference.

    I have Fuel Trophy 17x8.5 -6 offset & same size tire = no rub

    The wheel @ 9" is pretty wide for that size tire but it would work I guess..... can't say it wont rub a little, I'm close but all good even full lock off road. I would think the 9" wide wheel is for a wider tire that will rub even with a lift.

    Bilstein 6112 front, 5100's rear with blocks, camburg UCA, 17" XD's with 285/70/17 AT 3's and a blackout front grille.
    I bought KMC 17x9 with -12 offset and 4.53 backspace and they rub with 265/70/17's. They are the cooper at3 so the tread is not super agressive but still rubs. I've been told go to 17x8.5 or 17x8 with -6 or 0 offset and there should be no problems. And in the future if you upgrade to 285s, either wheel size should still fit. Maybe have to take your mud guards off in front.
