Nitto Trail Grappler 285/70R16 on Stock SR

Nitto Trail Grappler 285/70R16 on Stock SR Wheels. ToyTec BOSS Suspension (sits 2.75" over stock) and no cutting or trimming required! I have tested them off road with no rubbing at all but at full lock it is very close to the UCA and I may go with the Bora 1/4" wheel spacers that are hub and wheel centric... not sure if I want to waste $$$ and I really don't think it will be an issue... I also have the mud flaps on and there is no rubbing! Tires are smooth on road and very quiet! They have slightly more noise than the stock tires and handled great in the rain! I didn't get to test them out in the mud yet but I hope to soon! The diameter of these is equal to 265/75R16, just a little wider.

I ran the same size with a minimal lift, full lock & stuff and no rubbing. I loved that tire.

 

Nice rubber , BIG NITTO fan, I've got the same tire with Kings, Fules, OME Dakar's. Very nice AC!!

 

These seem to be the max for stock wheels without the need of spacers and cutting/trimming... and you can leave your mud flaps on if you like without any rubbing also. Nitto seems to be the only manufacturer with this size. They were $277.00 each mounted and balanced.

 

would these tires work on the sport 17" alloy rims with no trimming/rubbing

285/65/R17 or whatever the equiv size is

 

For 17", the closest is 265/70R17
Diameter 31.97
Width 11.02

 

This guy just said he put 285s on 16 inch rim with no rubbing so why not on a 17 inch?

 

It's a different size rim. Different size tire choices. He's saying the closest size would be 265/70/17.

If you want 285/70/17 you will rub without trimming

 

Edit. Beat me to it!

 

Max width - yes, height wise you could go 255/75/17 which is taller and more narrow.

I had 267/75/r16 on my 04 taco they where Firestone Mts loved them in a few weeks I am going to buy a set for my 2013 and see if they fit with no lift

 

You mean 265/75/r16? If so, pretty much the same size as the Nitto Trail Grapplers 285/70R16, the Nitto's are around an inch wider.

 

just curious what is the SR package?

 

But he was asking about 285/65/17 not 285/70/17

If the 285/70/16 works as indicated in the OP, then 285/65/17 will work also. The widths are identical and the diameter is actually a touch smaller.

However, you will have a hard time finding 285/65/17 tires. The trail grappler is definitely not available in this size.

I just got these to go along with my lift kit and am pretty excited for it to look like that

 

And that is nice. Nitto FTMFW yay rock and roll!

 

Old thread I know but anybody got recent pics of these on their truck in this size with 3 inch lift. Thanks guys.
