You might be right, I couldn't remember if it was 4.25 or 4.5
I thought it was 4.5 but that chart would make it seem that it's 4.25.

First thanks again guys for all the help. I made my decision and I decided to keep the stock tires through this year probably at least through November and before any snow. I just got off the phone and ordered black MB TKO wheels with -6 offset. Once tires wear out, I will probably get the Cooper A/T 3's unless Cooper comes out with a sale of some sort before November

Everything I've read on here suggests the same. I think we can get away with up to 4.75" backspacing.
Your -6 offset should sit nicely. You will see a noticeable difference from stock. Maybe someone on here knows the correct answer to this, but I think stock offset is +4... Don't hold me to that number, but I'm pretty certain it's above 0.

I'm running Cooper Discoverer ATP's on my truck.
Very happy with them to date. Both on-road (city and highway) and offroad. Details on my selection process are in my build thread. It was basically between the ATPs and Duratracs and the price and warranty won me over to the Coopers.

Okki - How much do the 265 ATPs weigh?
1E - Howbout the 265 AT3s?
I know the ATPs are a heavier load range, I can't seem to find any info on weight on the Discount website. Did either of you notice a drop in MPG? Thanks in advance!
I don't have the weight handy here; I can check to see if it was listed on the paperwork from Discount Tire. I actually noticed a small increase in MPG, but I switched to the TRD rims at the same time and those are lighter than the OEM 20 inch rims that came on my truck.

ATP Tire Weight
[MENTION=55815]Okki[/MENTION] - Thanks for checking, I actually got a quick response from Cooper on the ATPs.
Per Cooper Tires -
The metric sizes 265/70R17 load range B carries 2679# at a maximum inflation of 44psi. The LT265/70R17 load range E carries 3195# at 80psi. The P285/70R17 load range B carries 2833# at 44psi. The LT285/70R17 load range E carries 3195# at 80psi. The actual weights of each tire are 265/70R17=41#, LT265/70R17=50#, P285/70R17=45#, and the LT285/70R17=55#
I was under the impression that the ATPs were only offered in the E load range, I just emailed Cooper back to see if and where the B load range is available.
EDIT - Cooper advised the B load range info is for the AT3 tires and confirmed the ATPs are only offered in the E load range. Same basic tire with a slightly more aggressive corner on the ATPs.

Edit - yes 17X7.5 for the SR5.
I'm pretty sure it's 4.25, at least that's what I remember it being for the limited.
Maybe this also can help you
DannyLlama,
This chart is a great help. I see you have 275/65/18 tires. Do you have stock suspension. I have these wheels and am thinking of going with the same size tire. I don't think I will have any issues with no lift?

Sorry PGRunner, didn't mean to hijack your original post. I am also considering the Cooper AT3 tires as well. I have heard good things about them. Not sure if I want to go with an AT tire. My other choice I'm considering is the Firestone Destination LE2 or AT? Let us know what you go with. I will be buying tires in the next 2-3 weeks. Good luck.

First off, I love your choice of wheels!! I looked for something like that for months and couldn't find anything that simple in silver that fits our trucks. Great find!
Your offset will be around 4.75, which is way better off than I am @ 5.25. I'm fairly confident your fitment will be fine with 275's. What tire choice will you be going with?
I would suggest to test fit one wheel/tire combo first before dropping it off for all 4 to be installed. Oh and I replaced the stock spare with the same new wheel/tire config and it fit just fine.
Please do share some photos when you put them on.

Not a problem at all. I ordered my wheels the other day but am deciding if I want to just replace my tires or use them til they wear out more. I currently have @20k miles on them. If I keep them another year or so and get new tires, I would have to pay for mounting an balancing again so getting new tires now would save me @$80-$100. If I were to get new tires, I would try and sell the used ones on Craigslist. I just don't know if there is a big market for used tires on Craigslist.

Received a $50 off from discount tires in my e-mail today. Thought this thread would be fitting to share:

Go with 275's!! In between, you will loose gas millage, keep that in mind.
Unfortunately the ATPs don't come in a 275.. just the AT3s and I like the more aggressive corners of the ATP. May just stay stock until I decide to lift it in a few years.
