largest tires?

Was wondering what is the largest tire that will fit 2007 regular cab 4x2 17" wheels?

I was looking into 265/70/17 Michelin LTX MS2 or Continental Crosscontact LX20

If get those I would probably need fender flares?

Thanks!

 

265/70/17 or 265/75/16 will be the biggest stock without rubbing, you'll be fine.

 

No flares. If your a 6 lug 265/70/17 will fit just fine. Google search largest tire size tacomaworld. Plenty of threads on this. And welcome to TW.


Edit: 265/75/16 is the same diameter as 265/70/17 so that would be fine as well

 

I just installed 265/70/17 bfg at ko2's on my '11 trd sport and they fit perfect, no rubbing.

 

My trucks got a 3" leveling kit front and rear spacers. I'm planning on putting 35's in the front but I found out I will need 2" wheel spacers just so the tire will clear the control arm. I will also need to cut my front bumper a bit so it doesn't rub. I got the 35's in the rear already. I just need to find me 4x 2" wheel spacers for a good deal and I can proceed with my plans.

 

I run 265/70/16 Michelin LTX M/S 2's on my truck. I don't find a need for fender flares so far. However, I will let you know these tires DO throw gravel. Pebbles get stuck in the tread very, very often (every single time I drive over dirt/gravel). I still have my factory mud flaps and thus far have not seen any scratches on the truck body from rock hits. However, my N-Fab side steps do get hit. I can hear the gravel bounce off them occasionally - usually after hitting pavement and high speeds (which throws the gravel out of the tread).

Aside from that the LTX M/S 2's are excellent highway tires! Nice firm ride, they don't wander on the road like the original Dunlops did either.

 

I don't like the all terrain mud tires in the front. They make to much noise, im going to put pro comp at's on the front. It's good for what I want to do. Street noise is low and I still get enough traction when I'm Cruz in the trails.i found a pair on Craigs for 60$ with half the treads left. Going to hop on it this week before some one else does.

 

Fender flares for 265/70? Lol they will fit just fine. Mine rub, but my wheels are aftermarket with 0 offset.

 

After my tires go bad I'm putting 265/75/16. According to Mickey Thompson its 32x10.5

 

Man can you imagine that mid ride hight on 35's front and rear? To sick! Day dreaming, would 37's be a stretch?

 

I hope you have a big hammer.
