    None so far :)
    Recently bought the above truck as an overlander project. I instaled a Toyo 3" lift/leveling kit and want to go with 33" tires. I have the 16x7 stock rims.

    My question is what the best rim/tire size combo to get to 33" tires?

    I found TRD SEMA rims pretty cheap, but they are 17" and the fitment on the website says they won't fit my truck. Pretty sure that's wrong though. I know for true offroading it is better to have more rubber. Is the difference between a 16" and 17" rim really be that different?

    Alternatively, I can get SCS rims which I like in 16x8, but the ones I want that are in stock have a -25 offset. The higher Will that alter the driving dynamics or cause to much stress on the control arms?

    The net cost to me for both of them above is about the same. The TRD SEMA rims are definitely cheaper, but going to a 17" tire adds cost.

    I really like a black five spoke look. The lighter the rim the better.

    So, thougts?

    The 17 sema wheels are going to make fitting 33s easier, and you get more choices for C load 33s than 16 inch.
    I have SCS wheels -10 with 285s and it was easy to fit for on pavement. Minimal trimming, but good alignment as well.
    I am getting a CMC done tomorrow and Pinch weld for the Offroad stuff.
    SCS look really good! The -25 is going to take more effort to fit 33s.

    If you want to you could stick with the stock wheels and go 255 85 16, St Maxx, Yokohama MT for tires.
    Then you probably would have to do nothing.
