    Forgive me if this has been covered.....

    I have a stock 2020 2WD TRD Sport with 17 inch wheels. I would like to go with 16 inch wheels soon.
    Question is what size tires should I go with on the 16s that doesn't mess with the speedometer?
    Thanks!

    They come stock with 17"s, but they can indeed run 16"s—if you so choose.

    Yeah I have heard that too and that was the case for me as well. But honestly not enough evidence on TW to support this.

    not sure why....a 245/75/16 is the same overall diameter as a 265/70/16 so should have nothing to do with speedo accuracy
