What Is The BEST Wheel/Tire Combo For The 3RD Gen Toyota Tacoma?

[@edgarchapa7266]

I never thought picking new tires would be this difficult 😭

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

I know right!! I'm almost at the perfect setup now running a 34'' tire, but still have wheel spacers so next up is the right wheel with a negative offset and I'll be set!

[@YotaKiing]

Well, i am glad i found your video.😅 Just got me a 3rd Gen Taco and have been searching for so long because i dont want to trim my truck at all. This video is very helpful, thanks!!

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

Glad to hear it was helpful!

[@AlaskanGoldMiner]

Another great video. Thank you. After an obsessive amount of research, I went with a 3”/2” lift, then installed Ridge Grapplers 285/70/R17, 9” wide Mayhem wheels with -10mm offset. The tires are 6-ply, C-rated, thus saving weight. E rating is overkill for my needs. I’m happy to report that I have zero rubbing on the cab mount at full stuff. I did have to trim a few centimeters of plastic on the front outside corner of the wheel well. Very easy fix with the Dremel and a bit of heat gun. I could not be happier with how it turned out!

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

Sounds like a great setup! I'd like to go to a negative offset soon!

[@xgonnagiveit]

Got any pics of your truck would love to see it with this setup!

[@matthewgunther782]

That’s about the same setup I will be going with. I’m pretty confident with the plastic trimming but I’m worried about cab mount rubbing because I live above the rust belt and would rather not do the chop.

You’ve given me tons of info for my 2017 TRD sport Thanks a million

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

Awesome man! What have you done to it so far!?

[@nightbreed141]

I love 17 inch by 8.5 inch with no offset which is the perfect wheel size for all around daily driving and off road ! There's a lot of data behind this size wheel plus saves a lot of gas vs a 9 inch or 10 inch. Without a lift I love a 265x70 tire with that setup as well !

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

There's not going to be a significant mpg difference between the wheel being wider. The wider the tire possibly the heavier it is. Where are you seeing this information? We are talking a few pounds of a difference. Obviously stock tires will differ from larger ones of course. But as long as you love your setup that's all that matters man! Every has a style and look they are going for!

[@nightbreed141]

@@BrosFOURRSpeed Yeah I get it man everyone will choose whatever they want but your statement of not wasting more gas or not being a big difference is a contradiction on your part.its basic science there's plenty of data to support my claims. This is the main reason why many vehicle manufacturers go with 17 inch wheels because of those reasons that I stated. The new Ford raptor will also be coming in stock with 17 inch by 8.5 with huge tires ! Once you go bigger than 17 inch wheels then you sacrifice a lot in many aspects including performance...

On a stock Tacoma limited you can pull 275/65/R18 rough country at Les Schwab. At least that what I am running on my 22 limited.

You covered a lot really quick . I have a 23 Tacoma 3 inch lift front and back what is the best size tire and the best size wheel both on and off road no rubbing Thanks .

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

I did cover all of that! Depends on the cutting you want to do. I had about a 4'' lift up front/3.5'' in the rear and in the end, had 34x12.5 tires with zero rubbing after cutting and new alignments. With just the lift and zero cutting, a 33x11 could fit with a wheel having a 0 offset. My first setup I believe was 32x11 with an 18x9 0 offset and I barely had rubbing and that only happened in reverse full lock. Hope that helps too.

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

Honestly not much bigger! If you got adjustable upper control arms, you can push the tire about .5'' forward for more clearance to go a little bigger, but if you don't plan on changing any of the suspension components, you're limited to staying very close to the stock specs.

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

You can certainly do that size wheel, but at -22, depending on how wide that tire is you will have rubbing behind the tire. The bumper is easy to fix. But I did the CMC to get more clearance behind the tire, so that will be something you'll have to look at. The stock Tacoma's have a pretty soft suspension and towing won't really affect that, but if you tow a lot, I would recommend getting add-a-leafs to keep the truck level and stiffer in the rear to accommodate the weight.

What’s the biggest tire you can fit on the factory wheel on the 3rd gen Tacoma? Regardless of rubbing and what lift you should have, I just want to know the biggest size tire to fit on the factory 16in wheel...

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

If you don't want rubbing you'd need to stick to either slightly taller or slightly wider than the stock tire. You could throw on a 33x12.5 or even 35's on a 16'' wheel as long as the tire is rated for the width of the stock wheel. I believe for the Tacoma they are 16x7.5, and most larger tires I have seen require the wheel to be 8-10'' wide. So on the factory 16's you can go a little bigger if you aren't lifting the truck, but not by much unless you trim!

[@dogsavethequeen7689]

I mighta been lied to. Les Shwab (local tire guys) told me I couldn't do 265/75 without a leveling kit because of the width.

You should be able to fit that tire fine, If it's the same diameter and slightly wider you may have slight rubbing, but nothing crazy! You'd be surprised what size tires you can run! Currently I'm running 34's with a 3'' lift with no rubbing, so with the stock height, it's possible!

If you stick with the stock tire specs, you will have rubbing on the cab mount possibly. That tire size looks like a 30.6'' tire from a quick search, not sure the width, but the rubbing should be minimal. I did the CMC and it allowed for so much more clearance, so you could do that and not lift the truck and fit a bigger tire on if you wanted to go that route.

So my current setup is 17x9 0 offset, with a 34x12.5 tire. I also have the 1.25'' wheel spacers on and don't have any rubbing. I have the CMC which helped and also a new alignment to push the tire forward, so it can be done with minimal trimming!

If you are looking for good mpg, stick with the stock tire size! Or go slightly taller with the same width so the tire doesn't weight much more. The pro wheels are definitely cool and I've seen a lot of people run the wild peaks. I've never had them, but they seem like a great tire!

I got a 2020 Tacoma. It’s the SR model v6 with tow package. I’m looking at 18’s with a 3” front 2” rear leveling kit. I’m trying to see what options. 18x9 0 offset is what I’m really looking at but as far as that. 8-10 ply tire and wanted to know tire size. Mainly used for daily driven and maybe dirt roads/ camping but that’s not all the time.

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

So my first setup was 18x9 0 offset as well and I was able to put a 33x12.5 tire on with very minimal rubbing, the tire was close to the UCA but didn't rub at all, so that was the biggest tire I could have put on with that setup. So you have room to go larger both in width and height.

Apparently stock TRD wheels are 16x7 +25 offset (5.0”). Looking at some charts, this lines up with your 17x9 wheels at 0. So would I have any rubbing if I stuck a set of 32x11’s on the stock wheels with a 3” lift?

I think you would be fine with that setup. If anything there might be slight slight rubbing behind the tire, but it would be very minimal but with an 11' wide tire, should be good!

Oh, and did you have to regear the diff

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

A 33'' tire would rub with the stock suspension, unless it's very narrow. You would need at least a leveling kit, if you didn't want a full lift. And I did re-gear, but it's not necessary. I found it helpful for the truck to actually use 6th gear on the highway now and that's about it! Definitely drives smoother!

That's sounds like a great offset, something I would like to get for my next setup. I just added some wheels spacers to mine just for the look and what I'd like to accomplish with my next setup, but I have 285/70/17 and I had to do the CMC and push in the fender liner. My tires are almost 33x11.5, so I wouldn't go bigger than that and you should be ok.

A positive offset creates more backspace, while a negative offset reduces the backspace. The wheels in this video are 17x9 0 offset so exactly what you are looking at.

The tallest tire on stock TRD 17” wheels with no rubbing and no modification is the 255/75/17. You lose 10mm tire width but gain 0.45” to a 32.06” tire. However if you don’t mind some minor rubbing or minor trimming of your plastic fender skirts you can fit 275/70/17 gaining 10mm from stock width and height gain of 0.55” thus a 32.16” tire. Anything larger will require more trimming and eventually a cab mount chop. Good luck
