From an offroad performance aspect. Would 275/70/17 work better than 255/80/17 since the 275 is wider and therefore can get better traction? Or is the overall height of the 255 more beneficial?

I want those wheels..... I really want those wheels. Wow.Ok it rubs really bad in the front and on the mud flap. Should have went out in the rain last night and did the mod. Good news is that it is about 1.5-2" from touching the uca.
Think I will be ok after the fender mod, or should I wait until I put the lift on also?

Hi guys,
Bear with here... dumb question
Ive read and read in this thread but I just can't wrap my head around how tire sizing works when it comes to 33's: the look I like is usually 285/70/17 (I have 275 ko 2's right now on my TEP and a 3' toytec boss lift.) The rims I want to get are the stealth series 6, but what I can't tell from looking on here at setups I like is when the owners say they have 285's, do they have "33's"? Are there 33 and non-33 versions of the 285 size tires? I like the wider stance look, which I think the stealth series wheels with their negative offset will give me, but this 33' thing just confuses the heck out of me.
Hopefully this makes sense..sorry if this is just too stupid of a question
Does anyone have 235/80-17 tires mounted?
Wouldn't mind seeing a pic of that!
I just bought a 2016 sr5 premium and would like to put new rims on it. I like the Tuff T01 rims and they are 17x8 and have a plus 10mm offset. I know nothing about offset and was wondering if anyone would know it these wheels would work on the stock tires.
For anyone considering switching to 18 inch wheels on the limited I have just switched to the following:
Ion 18*9 inch wheels with +12 offset
Kumho Road Venture AT51 275/65/18
I was a little worried from reading some of the charts and posts that 9 inch wide wheels with +12 offset would give an incompatible backspacing. I have no rubbing at all, and still some clearance from the UCA (although not much).
Stock 2013 limited. No lift.
2016 TE. 275/70/17 KO2's with no rub at all. Stock suspension.
