Which 33" tires to get?

Alright guys the build has finally started. The bilstein lift from toytec comes by Monday. And I ordered the JBA UCA last night, at this point I have found my wheels. I just don’t know which size tire to go with I know I want 33s but there are all these different dimensions. I see a lot of people running 285/75/R16. Can I get some recommendations and or what you guys are running? With some pics

 

I might be biased but I think 255/85-16s look really good on first gens. They are narrower than 285s by over an inch

 

33 12.50s

 

Thank you

 

Cooper S/T Maxx

 

what is your experience with the maxx?
255/85 at the top of my list next tire...

 

My experience is limited to dry rock, snow, and mud and so far have performed admirably aired down to 14psi many times.

I ran Falken Wildpeaks on my Tacoma as you can see by the side by side picture; put the Cooper Maxx on the 4Runner -



I actually chose them because of another member here @eon_blue

Anyway, I did find them just a hair louder than the Falkens, but based on the pattern I expect them to perform better in something like mud.

Couple of pictures trying them in different areas -

 

Also a big fan of 255/85R16's

 

I've found your single cab to be my favorite ever since I joined the forum

 

Falken wild peak a/t’s all day, 33x12.5 they’re more affordable than a lot of other tires and they look great.

 

C range falken wildpeaks

 

Nitto Ridge grappler has been the best tire I've driven so far.

 

2nd gen. Been running 285/75/16 for about 7 years. Started with BFG KM2s (mud terrains) and probably wouldn't go back. They look and perform badass, but the majority of my driving is on-road and they are extremely noisy. Mud terrains... go figure.
Switched to BFG KO2s (all-terrains) and extremely happy. Put them through some extreme conditions in the Mojave Desert (sand, jagged rocks, dirt, mud) and they perform perfectly. I don't think I've tried snow yet. On-road driving is much better than the mud-terrains. I've put a couple of plugs in them where I snagged a nail, but still hold up incredibly well. Although, I'm not sure if that's a testament to the plugs or the tires...
The shifting drives me nuts and I still rub because I haven't trimmed anything, but I believe that's just a 2nd gen issue that can be remedied by other means.

 

Oh ya photos

 

Thank you

 

33/10.5/15 for me
