    Been lurking for a while. What's the largest rim I can place onto my 02 PreRunner dbl cab?
    Currently have 265/70/16 factory rims and would really like to put on some black aluminum rims.
    Thanks in advance!

    15, 16 or 17 inch.

    Might want to review this before jumping into another wheel.

    I wouldn't recommend going to 20's until you're running at least a 42.

    17's are the biggest I'd ever go but that's just me. I like more rubber than wheel

    Personally, I upgraded from the stock 15" alloys to aftermarket 16" alloys in black. I like more tire than rim but 15" tires just seem harder to come by in options I want. Our trucks our best off with 15,16, and 17's but regardless it is personal preference. I am running 265/75/R16 on my truck with a 3" lift.
