There's a thread for that. Not sure if you've provided enough tire info without someone having to go look it up. Plus it matters whether you have a LX570 or a LC. It's all in that thread though.

I figured I'd find a few Tacoma converts hanging around here, yours was good looking! My truck was re-geared, so it wasn't the worst thing in the world, but it definitely wasn't enjoyable on the long mtb trips both in acceleration and overall comfort. I really just want the cruiser to work without much fuss, if I could clear a 285/70r17 on the EvoCorse wheels I ordered without much effort I'd be tempted to go that route. 285/75r17 with a small OME lift that would accommodate an ARB bumper may be an even better solution in the long run though... I just worry about rubbing on the KDSS and opening that can of worms. Really just hoping for a set it and forget it situation that will work on moderate trails/camping and handle the highway miles in comfort.
Correct.
That is what I am seeing more and more, which is definitely tempting. The only real concern I'd have with the 285/75r17 and small lift route would be that it seems like some are rubbing on the KDSS (ET40 specifically), which I need to educate myself a bit more on potential solutions if it comes to that. An upgraded suspension and classic ARB bumper is extremely tempting though! First world problems.... Appreciate your insight
Dual concurrence, I appreciate it. No issues with minor trimming etc... Just a bit nervous when we get into KDSS rubbing and I'm OCD enough that even "a little rubbing at full lock" wouldn't be acceptable to me.
I have the same set up (without ARB bumper) you are looking to run: Evo Corse 17 x 8 ET 40, 285/70r17 wildpeaks, and BP51s. I have not trimmed or used a heat gun and I get slight rubbing at full lock in reverse only. No other rubbing or issues. Installer said not to worry because it will likely go away as the tires are nw and the parts that are rubbing are the mud flaps and the tire, both of which are soft.

I want to give a shout-out to @DirtNap. He has updated my database and made it more user friedly.
UPDATE #1: A disgruntled member keeps deleting portions of the database, so I had to remove the editing abilities for everyone.
For now, just submit your info via a reply to this thread or I.M. me, and I will update it myself.
Update #2: To anyone else who wants their info in the database: I am getting tired of people messaging me their tires, but do no seem to give me anymore info. Look at the database, and make sure you give me EVERYTHING that is listed. I am tired of trying to track down the rest of the info! From now on, if you fail to give the full description, I will ignore your post. No hard feelings, but... Also, if you have the exact same setup as another member that has already been posted, it is a little redundant to have it in the database. i.e. We all know that a 275/70 will fit just fine. I get that the more entries the better, but if the setup is clearly tried and true, its not going to do much good having it in the database. The only reason it would be useful, would be if you actually have rubbing on a setup where another member said he or she had no rubbing. If that is the case, then please me note of it when contacting me, or replying to this thread.
Original Post: I have seen many many threads titled "How big can I go?" and "What tire Size?" "Will it fit?" etc. Instead of trying to sort through everything, I decided to make a google doc to keep track of everything.
I think this will really help those who are trying to pick a tire and wheel for their 200. I included boxes for tire size, wheel size, manufacturer, mods, and general notes about your particular truck.
Maybe this is a stupid idea. Who knows; lets see if it catches on.
I will go ahead and enter info into the spreadsheet as I see it in various discussions. If you see your name on the list already, please do not be offended, and please feel free to update it as you deem necessary--especially if you see a "n/a".
I would also like to add, that if you do have rubbing, please note where the rubbing occurs (in the notes section), as we can make the spreadsheet more specific as we get more info.

For the life of me I cannot find a link to the spreadsheet you put together. I see the link for the 100 series on the first page of the thread, but can find it for the 200 series. I’m on an iPad mini, so I don’t know if that’s affecting anything, but I would really appreciate it if you could help me with where the link is.I want to give a shout-out to @DirtNap.
