So i have had my 2.5" ToyTec lift on for a while now and its getting to the close to the time when i wanted to replace the OEM tires. My question is (keeping in mind im not using this truck for hard core off roading) would a 285/75r16 be more beneficial than a 265/75r16 or 285/70r16. also please list your personal pros and cons. Also the recommended tire size is 32" for the 2.5" lift.
Thanks
Schwartz
