Can I fit 285 75 16 with a 3" lift

just recently bought some 285 75 16 nitto trail grapplers for my Tacoma and am wondering if I can fit them with a 3" lift or if I should get some 265 75 16s instead

 

Here is my 2016 off road long bed with 285/65r18's with a 3" lift. They fit great and no rubbing.

 

depends on wheels. (backspacing)

 

What is your offset/back spacing?

 

Offset is -12 and back spacing is 4.53

 

I fit 285/75/16 with a 3in lift ,2015 TRD Off-Road 4x4, bilstein 5100 4 corners , ome 887 coils , toytec boss progressive aal , rims fj Trd special edition 16x7.5 with 4.5 back space. No rubbing while driving on street or while off road [sand ,really bad uneven dirt road to fishing spots ] tho I haven't took my truck heavy off road like rock crawling yet. Did have to pull off the front mud flaps

 

I fit 285/75/16 bfg mud terrains on my Tacoma with just a 2" lift from rough country, 2" blocks on the back and coil spacers on the front, mounted them to stock wheels and put 1.5" wheel spacers. I had to do some trimming on the front and back fender well and remove the mud flaps but it turned out pretty nice.

 

go with the 285 you wont be happy with the look 265 gives with 3inch lift. At least i didnt like it on my 2007 so i went up to 285/75/16 loved it!!!!!!!!!

 

I have an 01 Tacoma and was looking for the same answer..I plan on lifting it 3inches also...just not sure on a tire size to go with that won't involve and addition fabrication...285 or 295

 

I just put a 3" toytec coil spring lift on mine with 1.5" blocks in back also. Id like to know what backspace/offset i need to run 285 on a 17x9 wheels

 

285 is the norm you can go without any serious trimming or headaches. Also should note when you go up a lot in tire size and lift etc. It affects your gearing and speedometer reading/gas mileage. Depends on what wheel backspacing you have going too. I have second gen wheels on my truck and when I went to put on 285's I was rubbing on the uca's. So I either had to change my wheels or install spacers. I went with spacers for now. In most cases though you will only need to possibly remove the front mud flaps and beat down the pinch weld some in the wheel well. Super easy stuff to do.

 

Thanks for the response! I'm keeping the stock 16 inch rims for now and if they rub on the uca's I guess I'll just do the same as you have and add wheel spacers..once again thanks for the advice

 

UPDATE! Finally got my wheels and tires on. ZERO absolutley no rubbing. 17x9 Dropstar 645mb -12bs with 285-70-17 nitto g2s. Only thing i had to do is take front flaps off

 

Dopestar!

 

They'll fit with some minor trimming to major upgrades depending on your backspacing as mentioned and how you drive it..more flexing you do offroad, more you have to trim

 

This is my 2017 TRD OR with Icon stage 4 (aal).

I’m running 265/75/16 Ko2 a/t. Most people here are posting their 285s, wanted you to see what 265s look like lol

Also, 285s will defintely make your truck look taller since they raise your axle.
