Will 295/70R17 fit my 2012?

Hi I have 285/70R17 tire guy trying to tell me I can go to 295/70R17. Anyone know if they will be a good fit for my 2012 TRD tacoma? Looking for one not so noisy like I got these are Nitto Terra Grappler G2

 

Is it lifted? stock wheels?

 

I have on it now a factory lift? The tires and rims I have on it now came with it, I wanted to get a bigger tire and this is what tire kingdom told me. I also want a tire that is not so noisy the ones I have now are. My daughter is autistic and the noise will set her off. I am at these guys mercy, been told so many stories, so many different prices. I love my rims that I have on it and want to keep them

 

picture of your truck? there is no "factory lift"

 

Post pics of your set up

 

Is there a reason you want to go bigger?

 

that is what they told me it was a factory lift
this is my truck

 

no real reason to go bigger at all, I like the look of the other trucks with the bigger tires, the way they stick out. Just like the look.

 

I love my rims and want to keep them, the told me I could go to that bigger size and still keep my rims

 

I'd stick with a 285/70-17. More choices in tires and known to fit well with minor mods

 

Thank you for your input
Is there a way to actually know other than the saleman telling me what is a noisey tire and what is not?

 

The noise a tire makes doesn't depend on its size. It depends on the tread. An aggressive knobby tire will make a lot more noise than a smoother street tire. Going up to 295 might be okay, but it might rub, it will be heavier, probably decrease your gas mileage and it will make driving feel more sluggish.

If all you care about is noise then get a tire that is less aggressive. The salesman is probably just trying to make some money off of you.

 

how will I be able to tell what is aggressive and what is not without asking the salesman

 

I have found Tirerack.com and discounttiredirect.com very useful for research. The customer reviews can reveal a lot about different tires.
