Thoughts on my choice for wheel/tire upgrade?

Hey everyone, So I have been doing a lot of research to figure out exactly what size wheel/tire I want to order that won't require a lift.

Platform: 2007 Tacoma 2.7L 2wd 5spd

Tires my truck came with (used): 255x50x19 with some Falken rims.

~I had some slight rubbing due to what the previous owner did and it rubbed through my ABS harness so I'm taking heavy consideration to rubbing.

So I read I can go up to 31x10.5x15. But I want mud-terrain tires so I'm thinking it's best I stick with 265x70x15 to avoid rubbing from the extra tread.

Can anyone recommend the best way to get this done? My initial thought was to order from Tire Rack or something, but then I have to spend the extra cash on mounting/balancing at a shop nearby. I saw some packages online come mounted/balanced but would you deem that trustworthy? Or is my best bet to find a reliable shop and get the tires/rims from them assuming they install as well.

Thanks all!

 

Just find a trust worthy shop, they'll mount balance and probably include some kind of lifetime rotate/balance warranty you won't get by ordering online.
