Tire help size and brand

Just ordered 5100 and 2" AAL. Can I fit 275 70 17 with stock trd sport rims? And also what tires do you guys recommend for 75% highway/ in town driving and 25% mild off roading mainly to get to hunting and fishing spots? I'm checking out tirerack.com. My friends coworker said he will mount, balance the tires and install front shocks and align for $240. That seems like a good price?

 

Price seems like a good deal. As for tires maybe some all terrains. Hankook dynapro ATM is a good tire. There are lots of options out there but depends if you mind a heavier tire or not. P rated will be best for highway but the C, D, and E ratings will be a thicker sidewall and heavier tire. Kind of a give and take decision. So weigh out your options and go from there. BFG KO AT are also a good tire and they have a new style comming out in a couple months. It's has a more aggressive/ mud type lugs on the outer tread blocks and more aggressive sidewall.

 

I'm assuming the heavier tires will last longer? Mpg does not matter to me because my job pays my gas. I would like to get something that looks aggressive that will look nice with the billies at 2.5 and 2" aal

 

Bump

 

How much lift will this set up give you?

 

Planning on setting the 5100 on the front at 2.5 and 2" aal in the back. I have stock trd sport rims

 

The tires you wanna run will be fine. Should be little to no trimming required. Once you move up to 33's is when you have to do the cab mount chop and a lot of trimming as required. If you feel that this setup puts your tires too close to the UCA's then you can get wheels with less backspacing or wheel spacers. I only say that because on my stock 16" TRD wheels, after the lift, were about an inch away from rubbing on my UCA's so I got some 4.5" bs wheels.

 

Would it be better if I get 265 70 17?

 

You can fit the 32's with the lift. Hell, you can fit 32's stock. It's really up to your preference of tire but both 265 and 275 will fit.

 

No spacers needed on 275 correct?

 

Sweet. From tirerack there's only 3 different kinds for 275 70

 

If you buy new wheels with tires and get wheels with backspacing you can fit 33's. Mine don't rub at all on the road.

 

The BFg all terrain t/a ko is $227. $838 if you buy 4. I might just go for 265 75, more options

 

Still can decide to 265 or 275. There a good difference in price and options
