3" Redback will compensate for power loss, especially as the revs rise... Often a bit sluggish down low but pulls like a train higher up in the rev range. ;)

ET30 - 265/65R17

As snowchains would foul the UCA i decided to run:
ET20 (steel dotz dakar) - 245/70R17

With that I also obtained kings 2" front lift and OME 2" 350+ kg leafs for the rear.

Now these are worn I'm looking for a tad bigger, want it to be closer to the outside of the car as I now lean on my arches / sliders to fast.
Looking at

8x17 6x139.7 ET10 CTR106.1 Steel Goss Soft 8 Hole (Soft 8 Hole)
285/65R17 DISCOVERER S/T MAXX. (if they exist in that size???) 275/70R17 seems an option in the S/T MAXX

Any opinions?
I wouldn't mind trim plastic, I'd rather not be beating steel
I do mind road noise as that's where the car is 90% of the time.
I do mind OffRoad capabilities as my 10% offroad trips I have to keep up with a bunch of LandCruisers on 35's

Safe to one size bigger? with my (already bit sagging) 2" lift ? For example 285/70R17 (that would be closer to 33")



After clearing the front mudflaps it was all good.
Did to proper offroading and full flex, never touched or rubbed.

Hilux 2015 DC
2" lift
- kings springs
- ome leafs +300kg
- 4x tough dog adjustable shocks

Dotz Dakar 7J 17" ET20 steel rims + 2mm spacers to clear the brake calipers a little more.
Cooper Stt Max 275/70R17

Golden setup imho!
