Best fit tire for the TRD Sport. Without any trimming. spacers. ect

USAFHuey · Aug 30, 2020

If you were to get a set of TRD Pro wheels you could run 275/70/17 K02's without having to put a lift on. I think it comes down to the offset but I ran those on my Sport for 2-months while I was waiting to put my lift on. No rubbing whatsoever and I stressed the truck a bit trying to see what my limits were.

I wonder if you put some spidertrax 1.25 inch spacers on the stock wheels if it would keep bigger tires off the UCA's?

265/75/16's C. Goodyear Duratracs stock suspension no rubbing none at all.

Tires are awesome in the sand, mud and gravel not to mention they look really good. On the road they sound like the aggressive AT's they are.
There is a hum, it's not obnoxious, but it's not a street tire either. I have lost about 3 miles to the gallon.
If this was 2012 I would be pissed, but gas is cheap so it's not so much of an issue.

I'm surprised your MPG loss is that big. Stock suspension right?

Well I have a pretty heavy foot so I wasn't getting anywhere close to 20 when I had the Hankooks on.

So it maybe more like a 2 Mile per gallon loss. The suspension is stock for now. The ride is good no complaints, however i am coming from a Mercedes E class so I don't know how these trucks are suppose to ride. My last taco was a 96 4X4 and it rode like a truck.

I have a ARB OME kit coming soon with new shocks springs and leafs.

Edit: I wanted the KO2's. I really like the BFG's. However I read a lot of reviews and talked to a couple of KO2 owners and they all said the new KO2 are not that great on really wet roads. Also the E load on a midsize truck is a pretty harsh ride.

Those look great!

I had them on a 2001 Range rover and they were great. I looked for them specifically because of past experience.
Found four E load on clearance by my house $120/each. They have deeper tread than SL but same number of belts per
the salesman.

$120 each, wow.
Thats an amazing price. You cant even get chinese made tires in that size here. Although, chinese tires are quite good nowdays, they have come a long way.

Nice! Never seen those wranglers before, are those R/Ts or something?

Goodyear Ultra Terrain, only available at Discount Tire. I love them. Allot quieter than the Duratracks.

Looks good man.

How do you like those over KO2s?
Click to expand...

I really liked the K02 - they looked great, mileage wasn't bad, drove nice on the road in all weather, towed the trailer great. These were on my 2nd gen;

This time my 3rd gen I went with Toyo R/Ts - they drive great, look great, and don't throw gravel like the K02 did. I've hit standing puddles on the highway with no problems- way better than the OEM A20 tires..

Both of these are E loads, Toyos weigh more, and ride rough like a truck tire. That's fine, I can pump them up to carry our 4800lb trailer better.
A also run Blizzaks in the winter, so neither of these tires ever see snow.

I think the TRD pro has a 265/70 which gives it a 1 inch boost in height compared to OR and SPORT. So I wouldn't go bigger than that.

Wrong. TRD Pro comes with the exact same tire and size as the off-road. The 1” higher ride height is from the suspension. Also adding a 1” taller tire does not give 1” higher ride height. It gives 1/2” higher ride height.

Nice man. Yeah, i think toyo makes an excellent tire. Imo the thread pattern is better than ko2s. If toyo offered beefier sidewalls, i would have went with toyos for sure.

265/70/17 Load C ko2s. Great tire, silent on hwy yet great offroad. Looks amazing as well, none other AT tire offer such beefy lugs on the sidewall.

I have 265/70/17 Wildpeaks on my Sport

jerkwithkeyboard · Aug 31, 2020

So this saves me from making a thread and not having another tire post.... but i hope this can help

2016 sport stock and looking to go with this..
Pirelli Scorpion All-Terrain Plus - 265/70R17 AT+ 115T Tire $129 per right now.

Other than the speedo being off by 2.3mph at 60~65
Is anyone running these ?
is the 100 rpm lower at highway speed bother anybody?
i would think that the mpg should be close as these are not a Full A/T tire (they say) 90%street 10% trail and i think snow peak rated
i live in illinois so not that many mountains to climb, just pot holes and snow.

I like the picks with the rims i have also. helps me out (SEMA black)

and PS: sorry for .
