Help figuring biggest tire I can squeeze on my rig with Bilstein leveling kit.

Aloha, I'm looking for some help on my specific 4runner setup. I just purchased a 2011 Trail Edition 4runner it came with a Bilstein leveling kit as the guy called it. So up front is 6112 they appear to be on the 4th notch with E4-FD1-Z005B50 springs. It also has SPC upper control arms. The rear is 5160 reserves and don't appear to be adjustable height wise. I'm pretty new to lifts to be honest. My old truck had a small lift from factory and I ran it on 31 BFG K02s which was fine.

My question is just about what size tire I can fit on this truck. It's currently on stock size 265 70R17 which is ok, the tires just leave something to be desired and I want to put a taller and more aggressive tire on it. Obviously I can crank up the front setting to the highest and gain some clearance. I'd like to fit 33" tires if possible but am open to 285/70R17 as they're just under 33" I've read a fair bit on here and other forums and I under stand 33" kind of fit with a leveling kit, but also a lift doesn't make a difference unless it's a huge lift.

Seems like I might have to do some trimming which I'm ok with if it's nothing crazy. See I also have a set of the original Trail Edition wheels and I know they'll sell easier with tires on them so I want to upgrade my tires on the TRD pro wheels it has on it now and take the 265s and put them on the trail edition wheels to sell as a package.

Any advice is appreciated I'd imagine someone on here has the same suspension and can offer some advice. Thank You!

To be realistic though, i absolutely love the General Grabber AT/X tires, absolutely favorite tire ever. They make them in a:
285/70-17 -- 32.7x11.2 <-- you will fit these basically no problem, no cutting, bolt on and go
315/70-17 -- 34.4x12.4

They also make the Grabber X3 mud tire, it is offered in a:
285/70-17 -- 32.7x11.2
295/70-17 -- 33.3x11.6
315/70-17 -- 34.4x12.4
33x12.5-17 -- 33x12.50

I like wide tires, if i could fit them i would have a 33x15.50 under my vehicle.

285/70-17 leveled with trimming and the right offset,
275/70-17 or maybe 285/75 is close.

Depends how fancy you want to get yourself with trimming devices.

I've had 285/75r17 (34's), 315/70r17, and 35x12.5's.

If you want a good look without a ton of cutting, stick to 34s.

If you're ok with a little extra cutting and a little rubbing even after cutting, go for 315s or 35's; they require about the same. I personally preferred the look of mine with the 315s over the 35s.

285/75r17 Geolandar MTs


315/70r17 KM3's


35x12.5 KM3's
