285/75r17

Adding this for those who use the search feature in the future. Here are the wheels and tires with an OME heavy + Cruiser corps extended shackles. I think the height is perfect.

I've got the TRD's with an older and tired OME 2" lift. They are mounted with BFG KO 2's in 275/70R17. I lost a little power with them over the stock rims and 31's but I gained almost 2" of clearance.

New shoes. Loving the tires.. Got out of my element on the wheel color and haven't made my mind up yet. Bronze may have been a bold choice. Thoughts? May just need some dirt on them..

Bronze is the right choice, looks great.

Here is 2” Dobinsons with 285/55r17s (34.5x10.5 ish)

Those look more like 255/85R17s, no? Which is perfect on a 60 in my opinion. Tall and skinny for the winny!

I like bronze wheels, but on certain color trucks. On a red truck they look amazing, on a black or white truck, they look good. Most other colors are hit or miss. I don’t think they look “bad” on your color, but there is a small amount of “your color match is off” that the general public (but eff those guys) would see. I’d run those. Nice 60 you have! Those wheels have a very JDM look to them.

@salvage60 How are you liking the wheels? I think it looks great. I've been going through the same process that sounds like you went through on a search for a 16" wheel that I like with correct backspacing to avoid spacers to no avail. I have stock axles and about to get the Dobinsons IMS Suspension kit. You mentioned you have extended shackles, I assume that gives you additional lift? Do you think I'd need those to clear this wheel/tire combo?

 

[salvage60]

@crutch I think these are the closest you can get for the stock axles, that said I am a bit OCD. The perfect rim for me would be 3rd word spec steel 8" wide and 1/2" less offset. As for the extended shackles you would be fine with the Dobinsons. These wheel are almost perfect except for appearing a bit "hot rod" in the southern california climate.

I have 255/80-17. I think they are a great size tall and skinny. 33.1" tall and 10" width. No rub at all full flex with spacers.

Looks great, which steelies are these?

I've been thinking about going 255/80/17's also.

Currently have 305/70/16s and they sap so much power with the width and mass. And they're loud Toyo Open Country M/Ts.

They are the toyota tacoma spare tire steelie I bought from Toyota online directly.
