I've bought new tires 15 times in my life and it's always been the next size up, until now. Went from 37" ko2's to 36" toyo at3's.
Specifically 285/70r20 on 20x8.5 +10 (added center caps after photo)

I loved how the 37's on 17's fit and performed on my LX, but wanted to change it up. My goal was to keep the total weight no higher than the existing 26lb wheel and 65lb tire. Wheels weigh in at 30lbs and tires at 60-61lbs. We will see how I like it long term.
That looks great. How much fender work was needed?
 
Curious if anyone have used this Tundra wheel. I would like to see pictures mounted. Im shopping around for Tundra take offs. I found a set of TRD Tundra black/grey for $600. This other set is only $200.

Installed some new tires on my brother's Tundra. BFG KO2 275/65R18. Tried them on my truck. I didn't care for them because of the offset that inset them too far for my liking, but that's personal preference.

Thanks. No fender mods. I have both sets of front and rear bumps modified/upgraded. Front wheel well liner pushed forward and a body mount chop.
 
I am looking at two potential options for my 2011 LX OEM wheels.
1. 2019 LX OEM 21" wheels
2. Rock warrior wheels.
Does either of these needs spacers to go on my 2011 LX? I will stick to tires which are within spec and dont want to add spacers or modify/trim anything in the wheel wells.

Thoughts?
 
Neither will *need* spacers assuming a normal tire size (sub 34") but may benefit from spacers depending on what tire size you choose. But that's an odd selection for sure. Basically the most off-road option and the most road-only option out there. Opposite ends of the spectrum. What are your goals for the truck? What kind of driving do you do?

IMO, the 21's are for pavement use only and not the best size for ride quality or tire choices. If you like the "big wheel" look, I think the 20's that came with your truck (or some other 20" wheel) would be a better choice. Many go with the variety of OEM 18" options for a balance of off-road capability, on-road performance and ride quality. The 17" Rock warriors are a great wheel too, but getting harder to find in good shape and kind of expensive. 17"s will have a less direct on-road handling feel due to the taller sidewalls, but it's all about driver preference. I love my 17's.

I’ll sell you option 1 off of my wife’s 2020 570. They’ve got new Michelin defender ltx on them.
 
Thanks for your honest opinion.
I will just stick with my OEM

thanks for your honest opinion. I use for both daily commute and off-roading to beaches and light trails.
21” is a no go then.
 
285/70R18 KO3 on stock wheels and Bora .75” spacers.
I just moved from 275/70R18 Duratracs to the 285s and I’m super happy. No rubbing. I already had trimmed mud flaps and moved wheel well liner years ago, so it was a direct swap… although these come in at 33.7” which is only 0.3” more than my 275s, the overall vehicle height gain was about 0.5”. Not sure how that plays out, but pretty happy camper here.

I also just moved from that size ^^^. Was running E-rated Toyo Open Country AT3 in 275/70/18 and while they performed well for me over 45k miles they had become horrendously bad on wet pavement (like dangerously bad). Switched to Falken Wildpeak Atw4 285/70/18 C-rated and they handle bump pavement and washboard so much better than the Toyos. The vehicle handles much better. Have not had them in a real off road enironment yet so I cannot comment on that. I love the tire so far although they are heavy and wobble a bit at ~55mph before they warm up. I think I will take them back to have them re-check the balance. I am running 1.25 spidertrax with an OEM coil spacer and aggressively cut the fender liner as well as pulled it forward as these tires tend to run a bit large for the size.

I scored a set of the 18" TRD Pros (I think that is what the wheel is called) this morning! Been looking for several different wheel styles for a couple of months and finally found something locally. They will need to be reconditioned a little and then considering what color to powder coat them. I have seen a couple of threads about powder coating impacting fitment. I'll make sure that a shop that knows what they are doing takes care of them.

These will be going on a black 2015 LC200 - I am ok with black on black, and bronze is really popular at the moment but I love the look.

Back from the shop. Now I just need to weigh the pros and cons of which tire to get:
Mostly highway driving but some off-roading
Tire noise - I don’t want too much droning on roadtrips
But want a beefier look than the Michelin Latitudes I have now

…which is why I am reading this thread.

I think the whole best tire debate gets really skewed one way or the other.

Since tires wear at such a slow rate and the handling/traction characteristics also deteriorate over time and mileage, comparing a tire you just replaced to one you just bought usually isn't looked at through a clear lens.

You really can't even accurately remember how the old ones handled when they were new to compare to the new ones you just got. Yes, newer tech usually make things better, but I don't think it is as much as people think it is due to the time frame and the slow degradation.

Great perspective. See also: review of a brand new mud terrain tire saying "it's very quiet!"
 
Does the database that began this thread still exist? if so, where is the link, I cannot find a link other than the template 100-series spreadsheet. Not sure if it is possible to pin the link on page 1 without giving editing privileges, but it might make it easier. (Or I am just notoriously terrible with technology).

I feel like I'm losing my mind searching the database and this forum for the following information-Will 285/65/18 or 285/70/17 rub on stock without any modifications/trimming/chopping/etc. Wheel offset will either be +35 or +25. Thanks!

Having run 285/65r18 with 60mm and 45mm offset wheels I was ever so slightly rubbing the plastic fender liner when locking the steering wheel side to side. It was so minimal it was really a non issue. Going with a more aggressive offset such as 25mm with result in less clearance inside the fender when the tire/wheel turns. Between 25mm and 35mm the 35mm offset will give you less clearance headaches while also providing better suspension geometry (scrub radius).

25 offset Icons, 285/70/17 Wildpeak AT3W on 2011 LX. Slight rubbing on fronts , easily fixed with heat gun and pry bar, maybe a little trimming with razor knife.

Thanks so much! This is what I'm processing too and to completely eliminate any rubbing on a +25 or +35 in either a 17 or 18" wheel I'd need to go 275. I'm leaning towards 285/70/17 or 275/70/17. I'm currently running the Toyo AT3 in an XL load but I know there's an option to go to a C load in the Toyo or Wildpeak's but only in 285/70/17. I know there may be options in an E load but I'm not towing so no need for extra stiffness or weight. Thanks again!
