235/75/15 on Tacoma?

I am new and have been looking for a thread with the answer but couldn't find one so here it is i have a 07 2wd Tacoma with the stock 215/70/15 on it now and i want to put 235/75/15 on it but the tire guys are telling me it will rub terribly and i should not do it and i was wondering if anyone had put them on there 2wd without issues or having to modify or cut anything if it can't be done does anyone know of a alternative to the stock tire's that look like baby tires

 

They fit with no issues on my 2003 5 lug.

There are a few 2nd gens (2005-current) 5 lug trucks on here that run 235's with no lift at all.

In my opinion you should go with a taller tire but not wider. Use the link to the tire size calculator at the bottom of the page to help you find something you like. (maybe a 225/75/15) The main thing to keep in mind is to stay under 29" in height if you can.

The guys at the tire shop don't know what they're talking about. That's why they're still working at a tire shop.

 

235/75/15 will fit. Many members on here run them.

ok how do i solve the speedometer problem the tire shops say they can't recalibrate it and so did the dealership and i saw on here that someone said to get a Dakota Digital Universal Speedometer Adapter SGI-5 but im not exactly sure what it really does and if it works any suggestions?

 

At highway speeds (55-65) it will read about 3-5mph slow. The faster you go the bigger that gap is.

I wouldn't worry about it.

No lift, no black box mod, no rubbing.

 

Like those tires. How does the truck handle compared to stock tires?

 

Pretty much the same, nicer ride though. Honestly, I just couldnt stand how tiny the tires looking with the 215

here it is from behind

 

Got a five lug upsized from 215 to 235 75 and it looks real good no rubbing or driving changes. Glad I didnt lift it, this is a pick next to a pre runner

 

I have a 4 cylinder 2wd manual. I want to go from stock to 235/75r15. Would I have to re gear?

 

No regear needed for 235s. 31s is the point where most consider it

 

Will these fit a

Will these fit a first gen?

 

Will they fit a first gen?

 

Yes. I have a first gen 5 lug. No issues with mine

 

I'd shoot for 31s tho on a 6 lug. May be geared too high with the 29 inch 235s

 

I'm going to put on some 235/75/15s on my 2.7l and I'm thinking I'll add some 1" spacers on there as well. Any recommendations for a cheap spacer option? Or any comments on if it is a good or bad idea?

My thought process: I feel like my tires currently sit inside my fenders and it would be more stable with a wider track, plus I think it might look better.
