    image.jpg Looking to upgrade wheels and tires on stock 2016 TRD Sport. I am new to the world of pick-up modifications (last vehicle was a 1995 Town Car) so excuse my naivety.

    Through research I have read largest tire size recommended is 265/70/17. Stock wheels are 17x7.5. I have been looking into wheels and am now a bit lost. I wanted something like the Fuel Revolvers or Podiums in 17x9(http://www.fueloffroad.com/wheel-sizing-options/1247/fuel-1-piece-wheels-revolver-d525/?finishID=3622) or (http://www.fueloffroad.com/wheel-sizing-options/10937/fuel-1-piece-wheels-podium-d617/?finishID=3009). I don’t mind if the tires stick out past the fenders a touch, but do not know if this set-up will have some rubbing. The tires I’m thinking are BFG KO2 265/70/17.

    The vehicle will be driven on and off road, in the mountains of the B.C. Okanagan.

    If this won’t work on stock suspension, does anyone have any suggestions for a similar look? I quite like the black wheels with the sunken baja beadlock look. Would like to stick to the 17” in case I get a trailer, but not mandatory.
