    It is the go-to size, unless you're trying hard to be different.

    My 80 came with 295s. But she's got small OME lift, so it looks about right. And that truck is just about looking good. :D

    My 97 was a beast in the snow with the viscous coupler. It’s too bad the 100 series got rid of that feature.

    You're talking to the wrong guy about that. I ran 285/75/16 on my last two tacomas and most recently I'm on 315/75/16s. My truck on 315 carves up a road with good steering and manners just as it did on 285

    I can’t imagine 35s on my truck. Even skinny 32s run with these terrible wheels I have.

    Okay, I lied a little they rub the inner wheel tub of the bed a little when you do this....

    In all seriousness though, 33s fit fine with just a little hammer job on the cab corner

    Not sure if it needs fixing or it’s just normal for these trucks with a lift. It will need a new rack eventually.

    My wheels are the issue, they have terrible offset like you said. Maybe them being closer in decreases stress on the running gear at least? That might be a reach tho.

    DUDE NO FUCKING WAY :rofl::rofl::rofl:

    Tell me why for the past week I've been keeping from posting in the PC section looking to barter for some 2009-era goodies to pair with my 9800 GTX

    You're just pushing that desire even more
