    I can’t decide on tire size.. I really like a flush-ish look. Worried the 285/65r18 is too wide.. also worried the 275/70r18 is too tall to fit under 3”-front 1”-rear. 2019 TRD Sport.

    Sorry... I prefer the 285/65r18 but I’m worried it won’t fit somewhat flush-ish look. Not looking for hardly any tire outside the fender. Is 275/70r18 too y’all of tire for 3”front, 1”rear?

    @Foozer I saw a few years back you had a similar question. Love the look of your 3rd gen in profile. Tires look very flush .. what size are you running? Thank you!

    Tire size won’t effect how much your tires poke out as much as wheel offset. Research the offset of the wheels you want and then that will determine how flush your tires are.

    Fuels Tactics (9”)... even with +1 offset still feel they might stand too wide. Probably being paranoid. Just wanting others’ opinion before pulling the trigger

    Thank you for the pics! What offset you running? Such a nice set-up! Nice work. Looks like wheel height is no issue..
