    Thanks to everyone above! Costco actually has the tires for the cheapest price and am going there. I appreciate all the comments about playing with the suspension and I feel similar about buying a new truck then tampering with it. Does a levelling kit really mess with things though? I'd love a couple inch hike but if people really feel strongly about not doing this then I will just add tires.

    Question: If I buy 265/70/17's KO2's and then decide to do a 2 inch level kit will these tires appear too small now?

    Thanks!

    That's personal opinion.

    Here is a thread that should help you out for what it'll look like.

    I upgraded the stock passenger tires on my 2016 SR5 (P245/75/16) to Duratracs, but kept the same size. For my purposes (getting to camping/hunting, occasional snow in the mountains, mild recreational offroading) the stock lift and tire size (with an AT tire) is fine. I thought I was probably the only person on TW that would do something like this.
