Nitto Ridge Grapplers on stock rims?

I have a 2006 Tacoma with 3” front and 2” rear lift. I want to run 285/75 R16 Nitto Ridge Grapplers on the stock rims with zero rubbing. Does anyone know if this will or won’t work, and if not, what will be needed to be done to make them fit.

Also she is a daily driver designed to tackle moderate trails once a month or every other month, should I look at a different tire, if so same question as above^^

 

For 285s you’re probably going to need to do the CMC. It’s the width that causes the rubbing so a lift doesn’t fix that.

 

Pretty green with this stuff, what’s CMC?

 

CMC is a cab mount chop. The cab mount is the place where 285s most commonly rub. It's not a huge job, but unless you're comfortable with using a saw on your truck, you'll want to find someone to do it for you. Probably someone at a mod day will know how or there are shop that do it. I think it usually cost $150-200 or something like that. When I did mine I also went ahead an hammered the pinch weld. There are YT videos for this. After doing the chop, I put filler plates in the holes and painted everything black and you would find it difficult to tell any work had been done at all.

 

too wide, they'll rub using a stock wheel, you'll have to use hubcentric spacers (spidertax is what most guys use) if you're going to keep those wheels, you need offset to compensate for the width. I know I did the same thing, 2" taller tires, but kept the stock width same height lift as you, no rubbing at all.
