Pizza Cutters 255/85/r16

Anyone know if 255/85/r16 cutters will fit on a 2019 TRD pro with no modifications and will not rub? I do not offroad I just like the look but do not want to trim anything. Thanks and I am new to this

 

I do not have them yet but I have been looking to get them, just waiting on Rims (17's, 255/80/R17) and from what I understand either should fit without mods. There may be some slight rubbing but you can usually take care of that easily. Lots of info out there on the following thread:

Thank you. Appreciate the help

 

Yes. Tons of folks run it.

 

They fit very well and require no modifications. I still run (aftermarket) mud flaps without issue

You'll be fine with that size. It is a common size around here because they avoid the need for cutting and modification. I suggest that you get tires that are SL (Standard Load) rated (lighter weight) and not buy heavier load rates (e.g. E rated tires are quite common at tire shops).

You can search online for the weight comparison SL vs E rated tires. The mass of a tire is spinning mass, so the impact on you truck will be much greater than having the same load in the bed. A few pounds in a wheel / tire make a big difference in performance.

Heavy load rated tires are significantly heavier than the SL rated tires and will bog down your taco impacting acceleration and braking - and also reduce your MPGs.

Additionally, they are stiff and will impact your ride quality - so it is good to highlight the desired load rating to your tire shop to determine what tire you want.

When searching for a tire brand is that size, look for an SL load rated version. Some brands will have them, some may only have an e-rated tire.

Some insight here: (be sure to scroll down for the ply ratings.)

Enjoy!

 

Pizza pizza for the win

 

The new Falken AT4Ws in 255/85r16 are C loads. Once they come in stock, that's what I'm going with. They're still heavy though

 

Anyone know the lightest tire in this size?

 

255/85/16 are all E rated I’m pretty sure. Also, most are MT tires.

A lot more choices in a 17” rim.

 

Oh cool!

My 255/80/17 E rated wildpeaks are 52 pounds, not bad at all.

I’ve had this tire for 3 years and I’m just amazed. It works excellent in all conditions (I don’t do “mudding”) Silent on hwy and tread still looks like it’s got 90% left.

Im definitely getting same tire when these wear out.

 

I think the Cooper Discoverer STMaxx are one of the lightest by a small margin....Discount says 53 lbs.

I have the Geolandar G003s and love them...they come in at 55lbs. They dont feel too bad IMO. I think they look arguably the best, and perform very well on road (not in slick-road-snow though). Phenomenal offroad as you could imagine.

 

For context - I believe that the Maxxis Razors in 275 70 16 (Stock size) are 38 lbs... So 'Light' is relative...

a 15lb difference from this tire change at each corner is a significant load.

 

Got them installed about a month ago. Local Discount Tire shows them available in 1-5 days currently.

 

These are 58.4 lb.

 

Yes
I run that size
In several different mt skinnies- no rub
Before (pro) suspension and after a new suspension- no rub or issues
2019 trd pro
Get a good alignment and make sure you are getting the caster you want

 

Geolandar G003 recommended
Discount tire direct online with price match
and max out caster with alignment

 

How are you liking them? Were you on stock tires immediately before them?

 

Previous tires were general Grabber ATx in 265/75/16. Really liking them. Quiet, good road manners wet or dry, balanced well. When offroad the other weekend, they were up to the task:


Didn't find any deep, deep mud, but what we found was easily handled. Now, to find some sandy trails...

 

Glad they worked well for you. I'm about 98% certain I'm grabbing a set of these soon
