Any third gen folks running 235 85r16? Looking for pics/experience.

I saw a lovely gen 2 with white spares and 235 85r16 and I was hoping to replicate it with my gen 3 with black spares and the same size tires. I know it is counter to the Tacoma trend, but I really prefer d or e load range tires (I have run them on my land rovers -- discos, defenders, series, and range rovers -- for years and on my suburban) as they are much tougher to hurt than the passenger car tires.

 

I have run them before on Toyotas and love them. They are the best bet for deep snow. I ended up with 265/75s on mine but almost got the 235s. Curious to see a 3rd Gen with them.

 

Sub'd... In for photos.

 

I'm thinking SR trucks without fender flarers would look great on 235/85.

 

I'm intrigued. I've always kinda dug the "pizza cutter" look. A buddy had that size on his Nissan Xterra. Curious to see what it would look like on a 3rd gen!

 

Also curious. Have a mild lift and am curious if 255x85-16s or 33x10.5-15s would fit...

 

Ask, and you shall receive.









I just put these on today. 235/80 R17. OK, so not 16's but pretty close. I think they look pretty good, even if I do say so myself.

 

I dig it, has a bit of a UN vehicle vibe to it.

 

I dig it.

 

Very nice! I like pizza cutters. I don't trend with the biggest tires I can get, either. I was the same way with the Rubicon I had. That is a very nice look on the Tacoma!

 

Thanks, I really like the pizza cutters too. They're supposed to perform better in the terrain that I drive on. Now, if I can just figure out how to get the center caps on, it'll be golden.

 

Very nice

 

Those stock steelies look badass on your truck..

 

Thanks

 

Same question as the OP with the exception of 255/85/16 or 17..

I have the 17" steels off an FJ and have been seriously thinking of putting pizza cutters on them.

 

Don't think you will fit 255s without a lift. The are almost a 34 inch tire. I run them on my 2005 duramax.

 

I like this term. I've always referred to the style of my FJ as third world. I had to have all white. I've always loved how trucks in that part of the world could take on anything. Love the steelies and pizza cutters.

 

Planning on some OME products in the future.

 

Ok, I am sold. What is the part number for the 16in steel spare wheel? I have been looking for spares (and even 17in FJ wheels which I was sort of trying to avoid because they are .5in wider but they look good on the truck above) but I should probably just pony up and buy them from the dealer if they are not crazy money.

 

Bro dozer vs. UN peace keeper.
