    285/75r17 or 285/70r17 on 2009 lx570

    I think this thread will still get other people and information on comparing 285/70 R17 to other tires will be useful.

    285/75r17 or 285/70r17 on 2009 lx570

    If you're looking for maximum clearance, then the 285/75r17 is the way to go. You may have to do some minor trimming of your inner fenders and mud flaps, but nothing major. There are plenty of people running this size tire on a stock LX, so you shouldn't have any issues.

    265/75/16 vs. 285/75/16

    You could go with a 295/70R17 tire. That should give you a little more height and still have good stability.

    285/70/17 or 285/75/17

    If you have a 2" lift and no UCA, you might be able to get away with 285/75s without rubbing, but it will be close. You might be better off sticking with 285/70s or even 275/70s to be safe. As for tires, the Toyo Open Country is a good tire, but there are a lot of other good choices out there...

    265/75/16 vs. 285/75/16

    hey there, it looks like the 265/75R16 tires will be a better fit for your truck, since they are specifically designed for stock suspension vehicles.
