This is a tire picture thread. Please post pics of your LC250 OR GX550 with aftermarket tires. Let us know the tire size and suspension mods, if any.

My 2025 LC (LC trim) came w/ Michelin LTX Trails in the 265/70/18 size on 18x7.5 wheels w/ 60mm offset.

I think the 1958's come with something different, maybe? PM me what you got and I will add it here.

Anyone with a GX550, PM me what it came with and I will add it here.

I found this picture online. I wish I could recall where, so I can properly credit it. If this is your truck, please let us know the tire size.

Mine has the following:
Ko3 275-70r18 on stock wheels (33.2")
8mm thick top shock spacer
Billet RLCA
No tire rub, even when at full articulation
Horrible gas mileage with the tires

What is the standard size from factory ?
I have a deposit on a 2025 which is due to arrive in the next 2-4 weeks.
The original configuration listed the AT tire option upgrade
I was told the dealer that the AT tire upgrade was removed because of an accessory conflict.
The online listed price reflects the change
According to my researcher the tires are a distributor added option.

My 1958 came with 245/70R18 Yokohama Geolandar X-CVs.

Most people are moving up to 265/70 or larger. Looking around, most 265/70 tires work no problem with plenty of folks pushing it to 275/70 without mods. I think 285/70 is where it starts to get "iffy" with rubbing etc.

From Enkei…. PDT1 18 x 8.5 +54 w/ 265/70R18 Michelin LTX Trail. For the unfamiliar, these are the civilian version of the PDM1 wheels used by the Dakar Rally 300 Series, which are forged magnesium. The PDT1 is cast aluminum with MAT process.

275/70R18 Toyo RT Trails on stock wheels at stock height (for now, with 2” lift inbound). The RT Trails are one of the best all around tire I’ve ever run in my 40 years of offroad tire nerd experience. They are flat out amazing.







I’ll add another pic or two once I get the lift installed.

Mine came on Yokohamas. Being in Texas the Falkens might be “ok”. I inherited a set of AT3Ws on my Sequoia and they were hands down the worst tire I’ve ever run in snow. If you ever see snow, or mud, I’d go with the Toyos.

We have a Texas trip planned for the fall, so maybe I’ll drop by and you can see them first hand while we eat BBQ and drink beer? Assuming you have a spot for our Airstream to park? :hillbilly:
 
Updated pic with the 2” lift in it.
