    They are Cooper ST Maxx 255/85r16. Pic looks weird (just had the recall springs done an hadn't yet put the AAL back in). If using stock wheels, IMO, spacers are needed to keep the truck from looking like a body builder who keeps missing leg day.

    I drive in remote places by myself pretty often. The price is worth it to me. I had abused this model of tire for years on 1 ton work trucks, so I figured it would be good enough for the Taco.

    Edit: I have a winter set, a summer set, a spare, and two for a trailer if that tells you how I feel about these tires. In fairness, the 4 I run for winter are the only ones I bought new. I bought the other 7 used.

    255/85/16 on Icons. I rub the fender and plastic wheel well stuff under compression and turning. I'll have to do some trimming.

    But I enjoy the taller tire and can't believe how quiet these tires are.
