    I think when I put my new wheels on in the spring I'm going with ST max coopers 275-70-17. A little taller and wider. But I have time to decide.

    265/70r17 is only about an inch taller than factory TRD OR tires (giving you ~.5" of additional clearance). You'll be fine. I'm running the same size in 16" and there was no noticeable strain put on the motor.

    Don't buy LT tires unless you really need them. They will strain your pocketbook by hitting your mpg's some
