    Can I put Wildpeaks AT3W P265 70R17 on a TRD rim on my 23 SR 2WD without a lift or rubbing? The truck came with P245/75SR16. Thanks for the help I am totally new with this stuff.

    possibly, if you get an alignment and have the front wheels moved forward, with as much caster as the adjustments will allow. your results may vary. Ski

    The tire shop selling these said they could install them with no lift and no rubbing. Moving the front wheels forward scares me a bit. Going to a 17 inch TRD rim what is the best tire size I should tell him to do?

    Yes, without any other changes, those are only 31.7" tall, but that's on stock wheels , not aftermarket low offset wheels

    That's called Caster in alignment settings. SOP.

    Compare your sizes with the Tire Calculator.

    I think I asked the question wrong. The truck came with 16 inch wheels. The shop has 17 inch TRD rims with Falken tires that he will install. I just dont want to do a lift or move wheels forward. Just want plug and play. What size 17 inch falken should I ask for? Again I am a total newb.

    I Have 17" sema wheels, & 265-70r17 tires on my sport. when it was stock, it rubbed on a flaps slightly, when turning while going up or down an incline, in limited situations. lifted the truck 2" front, and 1" in the rear, had an alignment and asked for as much caster as possible to avoid the rub... common practice to avoid rubbing, no draw backs. by doing this, you extend the wheel base slightly, and I mean very slightly. this actually aids in steering comfort and control, making the truck more stable at highway speeds. no need to be afraid.

    The shop has 16 and 17 inch TRD rim and wheels. Should I just stay with the 16 inch since that is the size it is supposed to be?

    16" rim is fine, but if you wanted to go bigger next time, like a skinny 33", then your better off with a 17" rim. More tire choices in the 17".
