new sr5 turbo diesel

[will's hilux]

hi everybody. i'm will and i just purchased a sr5 turbo diesel and it's an awesome ute.

which forum is it best to ask about tyres and rims? i think it's a bit undertyred right now stock. and i've been researching some all terrain tyres.

i dont want to do suspension work right now and i've spoken to some tyre shops and i've gotten differing responses in regards to rim sizes and what tyres i can use.

some have said that with a 17in rim and all terrains i don't need suspension work, but others have said it won't fit.

anyone got the mickey thompson classic rims? and with pics?

and i have also been leaning towards the king rims terra in black, 17x8.

also tyres. mickey thompson ATZ, cooper discoverys, bridgestone duelers?

thanks guys.

i hope to learn a lot here

also which other good sites are there for the hilux
