New 265/75/16 Duratracs!
Got some new 265/75/16 Goodyear Duratracs put on! I'm on stock suspension and they fit great. Huge difference off-road and great manners on road. I love them so far. Figured posting some pictures could help out those that are thinking about upgrading to 265/75/16 tires.

Truly the best size for our rigs. Which load rating did you get? Good pick!

Edit: In my opinion

Depends on what your definition of "best" is. Personally I like 33s because they're still tame on road and great off road. It's the perfect middle ground IMO

Thanks! I went with the C load rating. The ride is very comfortable.

Those are some great tires. From experience I will say to rotate them every 5k and you'll get great life out of them. Mine never chunked and most of what I did with them was rock and dirt. Great grip on muddy surfaces and great cupping on rocks. Soft sidewalls so you should air up slightly above stock recommendations.

Thks twkoch for posting this thread / your Gen3 looks awesome, nice stance.

I have a garage friend that just bought out a bankrupt tire shop.
- so my 2000 SR5 will be getting new 265-75R16's cheap / E-load on stock alloys & suspension

Just curious on front tires - where is the tightest clearance & by how much ?

Thanks for the heads up! I'll be sure to keep rotating them.

Its on the rear of the wheel well right where the L bend and the mudflap innermost portion meet. So I guessing this will accelerate those 99 talls abit. Sorry about the boards, the gf is short and needs the help in. haha...

I got mine back in 2009 and I'll be getting my 2nd set soon and they have worn well (42k and being a bit lazy with rotations) and have performed great on and off road. I went with the C load rating which is perfect for a 2 ton truck. My friend has the E load versions and his '99 rides like it's on rocks and those were his words.

My wife is barely 5' tall on a good day, and was not in favor of my pulling the boards on my 3rd gen in favor of some sliders.

So I "accidentally" used my boards to pivot on a boulder, destroying the passenger side completely. Then "accidentally" got the driver's side hung up on a stump trailside, ripping it clean off. Same trail, same day, wife was not impressed.

On the way home we stopped by costco and bought a small step stool and I said to her "it's either you use this to get in, or I get sliders".

Sliders went on less than 2 weeks later.

Same with my mom. But I've taken over the T4R now so I'm calling the shots. One thing though, when I get in and out I really push down on the edge of the seat as I slide in and out and this will only get worse if I get a lift. This is gonna wreck the seat, is there anything I can do to strengthen it?
