    Found a good set of winter tires, but the size is 245/70/17. Any ideas if that size tire would be fine on the taco?

    Thanks in advance.

    Supercharger, OME lift w/ LR UCAs, running boards, toolbox, extinguisher mount, skidplate, N-Fab light bar, 40" R.I. LED bar, WO seat covers, TRD intake, Weathertech mats and visors, stubby antenna, hood struts, LED interior lighting, Hella Supertones, and other stuff I'm forgetting.
    If you are going to switch between winter & summer, I'd just buy a cheap set of steel wheels that those tires will fit well.
    Then you can swap yourself at home.

    thinner tires are better for most snow driving, unless you wanna go arctic style and float on the snow

    They already come on rims, but they are Ford rims. So im not sure if the bolt pattern will be the same, plus they have only been run for one winter.
