Tire Size Advice - 2019 Taco w/ 2.5" Lift

Hey everyone! I have gone around and around on tire size options. I would PREFER to not do the body mount chop. I would also like to be able to run basic chains on the rear if it gets crazy (NW Montana). Here's the rundown:

Already Purchased:
- 17" Icon Alloys Rebound wheels
- Stage 4 Icon 2.5" lift

Tire Sizes:
- 285/70
- 275/70

Deciding between Falken Tires:
- Wildpeak A/T3W
- Rubitrek A/T (not available in 275)

 

Well, I hope you didn't actually pay $3884 for that lift. Icon has been pretty good about overpricing their products.

Tire size depends on what level of risk your willing to take for rubbing. The width is the challenge, and your rubbing will be decided by the wheel offset and backspacing, and how good of an alignment tech you have. 275/70 is ok and you could look into a 255/85. You run the risk of rubbing with the 285/70. Some people rub with 275s even.
