275.70.17 on Stock Sport

Here we go... 275.17.70 KO2 on my stock rims with no lift. I hope the only rub if any will be on my mudflaps. Lol :-/

 

They'll fit. You'll definitely have to ditch the flaps though

 

OP if possible please post your updates here https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/official-275-70r17-2016-tire-thread.394460/ as I started this thread in an attempt to try to keep all the 275 tire posts in a common thread. Thanks! BTW bad ass truck

 

I posted there, but it seems everyone in that thread doesn't have Sport rims. Lol

 

Good luck, I hope they fit. I would mostly be concerned about clearance between the tire and the upper control arm. On my 265/70r17's with stock sport wheels it was within a quarter of an inch of touching, but did not rub. I have installed 1" Bora spacers to get some extra clearance before I move up to 275's.

 

Brother, i have been searching and searching for this. Bless you for posting. sorry i know this is old, but how did this work out for you? I have a lift, but want KO2s 275/70/17 so bad on my Sport wheels and want to ask someone how theirs is working. I even had a 3' lift, but worried about rubbing on the UCAs

 

Here is mine 275/70r17s completely stock, just a little uca rub

 

awesome. thats what im looking for. I figured it would rub UCA cause my current stock tires are very close already. I do have spacers available but was hoping to avoid that of course.... Do you have stock UCA? Im wondering if i get aftermarket UCA if it will be ok. How bad does yours rub?

 

im in the same boat as you. have you gotten the 275s yet? hows it turning out?

 

Slight rub at full lock , no enough to bother me.

 

you still have stock UCAs ?

 

All stock.

 

Looks great with the new tires.

 

how much lift would you need to have absolutely no rub. If it's a slight rub at stock, would you only really need 1 inch of lift?

 

I don't believe lift is the answer, space is, I would say 1/2" to 3/4" of space would be enough

 

Ahh okay, the thinnest spacer *I could find* is 1 inch anyways. Thanks for the response!

 

Nope, Bora makes a .75" spacer

 

Yeah I meant to say I could find. Of course, I didn't do any proper searching. Good to know though, thanks.

 

Howdy boys, I've been thinking of doing a 285/75/17 setup on my stock tacoma and thinking of adding a leveling kit which would add some raise at all 4 corners as well as using spacers to even out the look. Anything wrong with what I'm planning to do? Any ideas?

 

I like it. I'm the same except about to have 275 instead of your 285. I've got 3" leveling kit and will prob have to keep spacers to avoid rub... only objection you'll run into are the nay sayers that beat down wheel spacers. I've read horror stories but I've also read about way more ppl say they've used them forever and never had problems.
