I have 31" tires on stock rim's. I purchased the toy with them and i want to down size them and get smaller rim's what is normal size? 175R 15's ?
I want better gas millage and better winter driving i will be buying new rim's. I have looked all over for what size rim to purchase and now i have found you all to help me. I hope

any help apprecitated thank you in advance

Your stock 15" rims are what you want to stick with. If you want to downsize your tires then you can get some 225/75/15. They are the stock tire and will help with gas mileage and power a little. They do look really small though if you don't mind.

oh god i'm still running stock 225/75/15's right now... waiting for my 35's... they are too small and too skinny.
SC- they look really small and they ARE really small. TOO small.

Orrin - I wouldn't go any smaller than a 30.5" - 31"'
Since you are looking for winter tires, go with something wider than a 225.
I think if you stay with a 31" and get something a tad wider you will be set. You aren't going to have any noticeable change in mpg with downsizing by 0.5" - 1" .

I dont care about looks i am after traction and mileage
I will get new rim's and tires
thanks

I can put these tires and rims back on in the summer just want tires for the winter thinking of studded as my wife drives this one and i use it to go to the ski hill. I am after safty and milage looks are secondary.

your 4Runner might have come with the 31" tire option from the factory , so going with a smaller tire you will lose gas mileage !

I phoned a local toyota dealer they suggested 215 /R75 15's nothing smaller

not sure why gas milage would go down with a smaller tire did not want the size smaller just the width narrower still 15 "

Thanks for the info will have to ponder best option
