    I am wanting to run 255/85/16. I know it is a skinny tire. I have a 6inch susp lift, which I know will clear them. the main question is will the engine of a 2003 TRD 5spd handle it? I am really not wanting to re-gear. Anyone here running this setup. All comments appreciated.

    A few bolts are different.
    I think you will be ok, it's just a hair over 33", may be a little sluggish is the mtn's but doable.

    by the way, what part of Western NC? I'm in johnson city TN but go to Boone and Asheville alot
