HOW TO FIT BIGGER TIRES ON YOUR TACOMA | Easiest Way To Fit Bigger Tires With NO RUBBING ISSUES!

[@motorcyclemichael2182]

Tacos should come stock with room for 33” tires

[@JordanMcKeithan]

Facts!!!

[@VieweronYouTube]

But then everyone would have them and we'd have to do 35s 🤣😂🤣

[@JordanMcKeithan]

@MrWilson101 this is true lol

[@manwithnoname734]

Trd pro can fit 255/80r17 with very little effort

[@Thejoeb]

stock room for 33s and a transmission that can go uphill without gear hunting would have been great.

[@jfox11000]

I’m taking this video to my lift guy and having him copy and paste everything you did to yours !!! Absolutely love that look !! So 3 and 1/2 inch RC lift , rims with a negative 12 offset and 305 tires ! That truck looks like a ford raptor !! Love it

i have KO 2's 265 75 r16, with the toyota dealer lift...........looks perfect

[@1_Seen88]

What bumper guard is that ?

[@BlueSTI]

Why didn't you run 315s? 305s fit easy on this setup with a 3in lift and the 4RUNNER trd pro wheels with no rubbing. Also did you need to re gear on the 305 tires???

[@JordanMcKeithan]

Because my wheels are a -25 offset so 315 would rub compared to 305s. I have not regeared. But I would like to in the future. The truck needs it for sure.

[@BlueSTI]

​@JordanMcKeithan hows the RC lift kit holding up still a good lift?

[@JordanMcKeithan]

@@BlueSTI still holding up fine! It’s not the smoothest ride in the world as you can imagine but it does the trick for cheap.

​@JordanMcKeithan I got the RC lift to love it. Can't beat it for the money. Wish you showed what you did in the Fender to fit the 34s. Not many videos besides people just doing a hack job or ripping it out. I'd like to keep the Fender lining don't want to have to cut it. I'm running the same setup now just been rubbing. Did the CMC but need to do something with the pinch weld area is where I rub.

Do you think 285 70r17 on 4 runner wheels will work on a 2023 pro with the 1.5” lift.

[@JordanMcKeithan]

Hmmm it’s hard to say. Maybe? But if it does, it would be a very tight fit. It was tight for me when I had a 2in lift.

[@landenkeller8218]

if i run your old setup with 285/70/17 + 4 offset, but do a 3in lift instead of a 2in, do you think i would have enough room if i also put on a bull bar?

I have a 23 trd off road. I don’t go off road at all. I don’t want to cut or chop anything. I was gunna do the ready lift 3” front/2” rear I want to run 285/70/17. I could settle for 275/70/17. Do you think I’ll have rub issues. The wheel I want comes in 0 offset, +18, or -12. Obviously 0 would be it. What’s your thoughts on rubbing? Great video!

[@JordanMcKeithan]

You’ll probably be alright might have slight rub at full lock with 285 but it might be safe. +12 is too positive, you may risk rubbing on internal components like your upper control arms. -12 would probably rub if the cab mount for sure.

[@davidjackson1141]

@@JordanMcKeithan I really appreciate your reply. I knew 0 offset was the one. I’ve seen many guys with a 2/1 lift run 285’s with minimal rub. I was also going to do 8.5 width versus 9. Thanks again. Very informative!

[@SecretAgentMan.]

Does the RC 3.5 work with the trd wheels? Apparently it doesn’t with the factory sport/off-road wheels.

What clip setting did you use for the Bilstien 5100s for the 2in lift??

[@SukhwinderSingh-gz5qk]

Hands down the best video explaining all the details. Are you able share some prices and costs involved? Thank you kindly!

[@JordanMcKeithan]

@@SukhwinderSingh-gz5qk thank you! Sure thing. The prices really depend on what you are willing to pay. Mine is more of a budget build in a way but it could be done cheaper than I did it or waaaaaaay more expensive. For example you could get a very simple spacer lift for like $300, it’ll cost probably close to $800 for install if you can’t do it yourself. Then for wheels are tires that’s up to you and how much you want to spend. All in for a build like this, you are looking at roughly $1,300-$1,550 all together after parts and labor.

Yo brother just to clarify, I can fit 285/70/17 with no rubbing on a 3 inch lift as long as I have a zero offset?

I'm about to go with a 3in front, 2in rear leveling kit with 285 70 R17 tires with a -25 offset for my wheels, you think that in itself would need trimming??

[@JordanMcKeithan]

Yeah definitely going to need to do some cutting to fit that -25 offset. Probably at the least a cab mount chop

[@hybui123]

@@JordanMcKeithan Don't wanna take up too much of your time but I want to expend my options before doing cab mount chop. What's the chances, in your opinion, of a -12 offset also probably needing that cab mount chop and more

[@JordanMcKeithan]

@@hybui123 -12 might be better but you’ll probably still need it man. Pretty much as soon as you start dipping into a negative offset situation, you almost have to do a chop to make it not rub. For example, previously I ran 285/70/17 on a 2.5 in lift with wheels at a +4 offset and had no rubbing issues and no chop. Then I added a 1.5 in wheel spacer (similar offset to -12) and immediately rubbing like crazy.

Did you have to upgrade your gears?

[@joelgarcia4148]

Hey bro. Just watched your video and I absolutely love it. I have a 2020 taco that looks pretty close to yours. I am planning to run 285/70r17 on it with the trd pro wheels like your old set up. My only question is did you rub on your upper control arm? I see you didn’t do any body mount chops or any trimming to not rub within the wheel well. But I’m concerned abt the control arm. Thanks for the very detailed video bro!

[@zacwilliams6441]

[@barryh5463]

Im in the process of researching for lift and tires. Man, Im glad I happened on this video… its very informative. It seems all the wheels Im seeing are -12 offset. Why do they advertise these wheels gor a Tacoma?!

[@JordanMcKeithan]

Glad it was helpful! I think they push the -12 because people like that “aggressive stance” look where the wheels poke out. Little do most people know that makes the tire rub like crazy. It’s a fine line between tire size, wheel offset, and rubbing if you’re not willing to cut the cab mount.

[@DrewDoesRc]

[@wesrobb-h3m]

Upper control arm is fine under a 3in lift

[@miked9261]

Please correct me if I’m wrong…but I could’ve swore I heard b4 that when running + offset rims, you have a greater chance of rubbing the UCA’s or even hitting the coilovers at articulation. Idk but I rather rub on the cab mount and fender liners/ bumper than those other components because as you stated…there are things you can do about it to fix the rub.

[@JordanMcKeithan]

That is correct! OEM wheels or wheels with a really high positive offset +10 or more will definitely rub with bigger tires on the UCAs/coil overs. That’s why I said you don’t want to go too high on the positive offset, just enough to clear the cab mount without rubbing any other internal components! Usually 0-+4 is a good spot for clearing 285/70/17 tires with no rubbing and a 2in lift.

[@D_Cali_Life]

What about negative offset. -25mm for thr tacoma for a wider stance

[@JordanMcKeithan]

@@D_Cali_Life really the mor negative the offset the harder it’ll rub. Mine are -25 now and they’d rub like crazy without a CMC and some bumper trimming

Thanks for the info. Do you think I can go 2.5 lift on the front with 285’s and -10 offset to avoid any rubbing issues?

[@JordanMcKeithan]

It's hard to say man. Usually the second you get into negative offset, you're going to have some rubbing going on. To give you perspective, before I had this setup I had 2.5 in bilstein 5100 lift with 285-70-17 tires and TRD Pro wheels. No rubbing with that setup. Then I tried 1.5 in wheel spacers for a more aggressive stance, immediately TONS of rubbing so I took them off. As you can see just adding the slightest amount of negative offset changes the articulation angle and causes rubbing problems. Better off just getting a chop done if you want to avoid the rubbing and have a wider stance.

Maybe but my guess is that it’ll still rub. I know 285 with -12 offset will rub on a 3in lift so anything bigger would rub even if it’s an inch taller.

[@JordanMcKeithan]

If you want to go bigger, just get a cab mount chop to play it safe. Or try it and see how it works out for you. Based on what I’ve seen most people that go over 285 tire size have to get a cab mount chop regardless of lift height unless you have a 6 in lift. Then you can clear 35s

I had that size tire on the trd off road, and I trimmed most of the bottom edge plastic in front and behind the tire. After trimming it didn't rub while turning on a reg flat road but I can't say it won't rub when turn when the wheel is flexed. Also in reverse while turning, you will rub slightly

[@ErickGaray-z1z]

currently running stock TRD rims with a +30mm offset, 285/70/17s with a 3.5in lift kit. IF I didn't have these 1.5in spacers in they would be a nightmare on the rubbing issue, currently they rub on the cab mount. With the 1.5in spacers I currently have a -8mm offset and it just so barely rubs on the cab mount while full weight truck and turning all the way left or right. Would getting a wheel with a negative offset such as in the range of -12 thru -20 fix my rubbing issue with the cab mount? I don't mind trimming the fender or plastic parts, what would be annoying is to do the CMC in general. I hope that running -12 thru -25mm offset wheels will fix this problem. Please let me know :)

@@Aaronchristiann not sure man, it’s kind of a guessing game really. Maybe a little bit of rubbing but it’s hard to judge it until you get them on.

[@cavani3314]

265/70/17 rubbed with 0 offset on 2 inch lifted trd off-road.

[@Jdprather]

Great vid man, your taco looks sick! Did you do the cab mount chop on your own, or did you have an auto shop do that kind of work?

[@jasdevkailey9314]

Curious what MPGs you get with this set up. I use my truck for everything including driving far to work so I’m taking that into consideration before doing a lift and 33s

[@JordanMcKeithan]

I get around 16 mpg with this setup

[@bt3750]

Great, informative video. Thanks.

[@dangkhang9479]

Good info but as an off-roader it will destroy my fender when the wheel fully tuck in the wheel well.

[@K1ngDre-DMZ]

What bumper is that?

[@JordanMcKeithan]

Body armor 4x4 hiline series front bumper

[@chrismanlawe2528]

Great video! Quick question with your set-up, are you able to clear deep dips on full turns when you’re on the trails or off roading? That’s a really great looking set up.

[@JordanMcKeithan]

Thanks man, yeah I have no clearance issues except for when I’m in reverse and just on the driver side!

[@aaronduggan1400]

What’s the gas mileage?

[@JordanMcKeithan]

Around 15-16

[@SenerS10]

TRD models should come with larger tyres as stock. 33 would be OK.

[@stevennewellproductions]

This is why I love my jeeps lol

[@robpile100]

Thank you

[@kauaisoljaz]

Great video man. Quick questoion. I have 17 Taco Off-road with the Eibach Stage 2R lift kit which provides a 2 inch lift and I also have SPC UCA's. I currently running the stock TRD Off-Road wrapped with Nitto Ridge Grapplers 265/70/16. I'm in the market for some new wheels and currently looking at Summit Off-Road wheels (17x9 with -25 offset) and I want to run 285's or 275's nittos on. Do you think it will clear? without rubbing?

[@WhatDoomroidThinks]

It definitely won't clear (unless you're willing to do a lot of cutting). This video is very good, but i would also recommend Tinker's Adventure's Toyota IFS videos for an even better understanding on how the Tacoma's front suspension geometry operates.

[@ddvutg]

Can I hire you to set my 17 off road like this?

[@JordanMcKeithan]

Haha! Hey I'll take that as a compliment!

[@Longtoesjameison]

Good vid but also should be noted I ran 35s on same front lift with no rubbing issues

[@JordanMcKeithan]

How much cutting did you have to do to make that happen?

[@Longtoesjameison]

@@JordanMcKeithan only fender cutting and wheel spacing to keep in mind depends mainly on how wide you go is the main issue not height

[@479_adv]

I am looking at a 3/2 Readlift kit w/ 6112 struts (lift blocks on the rear) and I like the way the 4 Runner and TRD Pro wheels look. If I understood correctly, you were running the 17x7 4 Runner wheels with 285/70r17 with no rubbing? Did you have stock UCA then?

[@LuisMartinez-xt9mk]

Could you tell me what is your measurement from the floor to the fender in the rear and front?

[@brianm2812]

Good video. You need a mic so you can hear your voice better though.

[@JordanMcKeithan]

Thanks man! Yeah I agree I need a lav mic for sure lol! Unfortunately all my spare change has gone to my truck recently 😂

[@joeyD213]

Awesome video man, I wish I watched this before I went from stock rims to 0 offset. I put a 2 inch lift in the front with Bilstein 5100s with 265/70r17 with stock rims, no rubbing. As soon as I put 0 offset Method rims on, rubbing. I even upgraded my upper control arms to Icon, still rubbing 😡😡😡

[@JordanMcKeithan]

Thanks man! Yeah that’s why I made the video because I’ve been in you shoes brother! I had the same thing with my 4Runner before I got my Tacoma. One major thing you have to consider is the width of the wheel too. Stock wheels are like 7-8 inches wide vs aftermarket wheels which usually start at 9 inches wide. That’s a big difference as far as clearance is concerned. So I did a ton of research before buying and yet it still rubs lol. Only way to really get around it is a cab mount relocation especially if you want bigger tires.

[@tylersmith7498]

I'm late to the show . But man i loved my Tacoma until i started wanting to go with 33s . Its crazy the amount of maths and decisions you have to make to get the perfect ( In my eyes ) setup . Its like Toyota intentionally made it hard to put a 33 inch tire on them . My 21' Tacoma is a everyday driver until hunting season . I don't go out and rock crawl with it - I have a TJ on 35s for that , so the few times i tried to get some real life do's and dont's and you don't want to run 265/70 all terrains .. You now have a mall crawler lol the Tacoma community is by far the most toxic and i love it 😂 I have 265/70/16 BFG KM3s and it just doesn't look right . They look way to small for my truck . A 33 or 35 is proportionate

[@6582rg]

Looks terrible when tires stick out past the fender flares and the tires kick up rocks against the body.

[@IBRAKEFORBEDROCK]

Guys like you is why I have chips in my windshield
