    Personally,..The1youluv2hate,..I think those 20" 4Runner rims look bad ass. Ive been looking at them and they usually dont go cheap.
    I agree about the lack of sidewall for off roading, but if you take it off road, then get a 17" rim.

    I'll admit it,..my truck is a Road queen. Daily driver. I use my quad for off road time. Less expensive to fix, and I dont worry about scratching the paint :)
    Truck is for managing the shitty / Snowy upstate NY roads, hauling building materials, & towing my quad and my jet skis.

    I agree with you 100 percent. I would stay with the 17th or maybe even a 16". It makes sense with an AT

    I'd go with 265 75 16s. They are 31.6 inches (biggest you can go without a lift). I think the tire-to-rim ratio looks good. I have 18s right now and I think there is too much rim. If you want a beefy look I'd stay with the 17s or go down to 16s and get bigger tires.

    16's or 17's.If your going to do any wheelin 20's are going to be trouble for you(no tire sidewall).

    You got that right. I hate going down there in winter. The Dept. of Highways uses that cancerous liquid Devil piss. I hope you rust proof your truck too.

    I know right. He said he does mostly highway driving and everyone is telling him he should get a smaller wheel for off-roading....everyone is just so quick to throw their opinion at him instead of helping him.

    Did you level your truck? I like @TRSAndrew but I like the AT tires even more. And yes I would be that guy.
