Pretty sure thats used to be the comparison for the previous shape/generation hilux's....I'd say these current ones have more clearance than a patrol on
35's atleast on the front end.

Yep....I've had to stop looking at my hilux because the more I look the smaller they get.

Exactly...tyre options are limited....the MTZ is the smallest 315/75x16 out there.....fitting them on FJ cruiser rims and aftermarket upper control arms with a good 3"+ lift is the closest and best way anyone is gonna be able to run em properly...unfrtunately I am yet to see anyone
do it.
And my hlux is barely bearable on the 305's with the D4D auto....so on
35's it would be a downright pig to drive without a regear......then if you get booked on
35's....your vehicle will be revving its ringer off on 32/33's after the regear to suit
35's.....etc etc etc.
Being able to get 33's working properly will get your vehicle further than
35's that dont....reading the terain and trying to take a different line will also
do the same....But I
do understand the metal deficiency I myself too suffer from and constantly wish of fitting 35" Plus tyres to the hilux.
It is doable....just not for onroad.....
