    Hey folks, thanks for letting me join the group! This is my first time to ever post or ask a question in a forum so bear with me.

    I bought a 2013 4cyl tacoma that has 245/75/17’s. I saw on the door that the truck takes 245/75/16’s. My question is do you think these bigger tires are damaging my transmission? Thanks!

    Slightly larger diameter , same width.
    No issue but you lose a tiny bit of torque filling out the wheel well.

    I’d leave it.
