What size did you end up getting? That's the same tire I have mounted as a spare.

 

[emelianenkov]

I got 265/65/R17's.

I also will have 265/70/R17 Hankook Dynapros soon! Need sh*ty 17" rims.

I'm planning on getting a set of cheap pro comp steelies for when I get the lift.

I want steelies too! Let me know how much. I want wheels I can beat up and be happy with

 

[emelianenkov]

Good God Mike we've totally corrupted you haha. One day in the trail and now you've caught the mod bug!

 

[rfuree11]

No fooling. I already have what i'm getting planned. It's just paying for it that is my issue. The only thing I'm debating is which tires to get. I want the Duratracs but they don't come in the sizes I want.

 

[rfuree11]

4wheelparts has em for under $100 each. I'm sure you can find them cheaper elsewhere.

Hope so! Might have found a full set for $200

The plan is nice but everything you see becomes a must have! It's true!

It's got horns? :wtf: :bash: :rockthrow: :whipping2 So Gay

I got 265/65/R17's.

:thumb3: Better than what you had on there for sure.

I also will have 265/70/R17 Hankook Dynapros soon! Need sh*ty 17" rims.

Are these new? If so then definitely better than what ya had!

Try Wheelers they sell steelies.

Pretty much. Ignore the horns and enjoy the ingenuity.

:thumb3: Better than what you had on there for sure.

Same dimensions, much more aggressive tread!!!

They're used but the tread is almost new!

Try Wheelers they sell steelies.

They only sell 15 and 16's . Damn these sport edition 17's!

Sometimes having the base SR5 has its benefits!! I'm 99% sure I have the smaller brakes, so I can clear the 16s. Next tire rotation, I'm measuring them. Tires are cheaper for the 16" rims too. Good find on those wheels.

Nothing wrong with a little rubbing as long as its not cutting the tire up... infact, Im a firm believer that if your tires dont rub, theyre not big enough, Hah

You do have 16's.

Lol. Or if they're rubbing, go higher!

 

[Hyde802]

Well...then you have room for bigger tires... :bigok:

 

[emelianenkov]

Exactly my point!

 

[rfuree11]

Nope, I have 17's. They just look exactly like the earlier 16's

Ahhhh. Makes sense. My dad had the same wheel style on his 05 limited
