    I've had it for 2 weeks. It needs help.
    Question folks. I am new to this.

    2006 Prerunner x cab V6 ... Largest tire/rim setup without a suspension or body lift? We live in North Florida. This truck will never see canyons/rocks/major off road terrain. Maybe a little mud. I work 50 plus hours a week and have 7 dogs at home. (Who has no life? LOL). Point being- I don't have time to play around in the mud. But, I have ALWAYS wanted a TACO since the damned 80's and we impulse bought one a couple of months ago. I've done small things like LED map lights, red LED dome light, cabin filter change, air filter change, spark plug change (ALL of which I learned on here, BTW). I put new bulbs in the headlights. BUT..... we are ready for a BIGGER project now. So, tires and rims are on deck. Paint job afterward.

    I know the brands pretty well as far as the tires go. I.e. what not to buy because piece of shit. And I studies up this weekend on sizes and what the numbers on the tires actually mean. (forgive me, my car knowledge has been from NASCAR, NHRA, and my dad-and now You Tube).

    I want the largest I can get, without the rub. Not cutting the "fenders" off of it, as I have plans for them.

    NO LAUGHING. It is currently what my dad calls "a beater". But, within a year, it will not be.

    Thoughts? Ideas?

    I've been stalking around the parking lot at work like a psychopath taking pics of other tacos and their rims/tires. Found a few I really like, but they're on 4x4 models, so IDK if they will fit mine.

    The cool thing about the pre-runner is that you can do a spindle lift. I would put a 4 inch spindle lift on it. Would be awesome with some 33's. 285/75/17's and some SCS wheels.

    If you're asking for stock height though you can always throw on some 265/70/17's on there.
