    Is there a reason why the OR comes with 16 inch tires and not 17 inch?

    More tire sidewall can be advantageous off road.

    16 is a popular Offroad size. So is 15.

    Those big lifted bro dozens with the 20s aren't used Offroad

    From what I've seen and read 16 inch also has more options than 17 for tires. And what everyone else said.

    If you want to see some funny undersized tires check out some new ford's and chevy full size. Some are just comical.

    I love the look of a nice meaty tire so much better than a big rim. I've got 15s on my 4runner and Im gonna miss them when I get my taco.

    If your OR came with 16 inch tires, you've got bigger problems.
