Please comment on selected tire/rim combo.

Hi All,

Today I ordered a set of wheels and Bilstein 5100 shocks. The plan is to only lift the front a bit (I have a '15 DCLB TRD Sport that has a 4-leaf pack). I want to set the Bilsteins to .85 to level it a bit, but not completely. After this I plan to put on these rims with 265/70r17 Destination AT tires. This is the plan I have now an based on research I did on this site, should be no problem.

My question is - what would happen if I went with 275/70r17 tire? Destination AT is available in that size. Given that I am switching to wheels that have 0mm offset as opposed to 30mm stock offset, would the tires clear everything in the wheelwell? What type of MPG reduction would it be? It's kind of important, since it's a daily driver, about 80 miles a day. Ride quality change for worse/better?

Any input appreciated.

 

What rims? And .85 will still leave you rear high. Mine got leveled at 1.75 and I am not sure if a 275/70/17 tire will fit with that minimal lift.

I think It's the wheel back spacing that is going to determine how much rubing/cutting to fit those 275s not sure what it would be tho
