265/70r17 fit on a standard 2015 sr?

Postby trizzo88 on Thu, 18 Jun 2015 5:19 +0000

Hi I have just purchased a 2015 sr dual cab. I want to fit a set of Tuff AT wheels with 265/70r17 tyres to It. Just wondering if they will fit okay on a standard height sr with no lift kit or will tyres scrub? I do a fare bit of driving in soft sand which requires me having to let Tyre pressures down etc.

I've just picked up my 2014 SR from Bob Jane an hour ago with 265/70R17 BFG A/Ts on it. No scrubbing at all so far, but I've only been highway driving and residential parking.
I'll update again if I notice anything.
I can post photos too if you'd like, but not til a bit later.

So after about a week, everything is running fine. Very small amount of mudguard scrubbing on the front left, and oddly, only while in reverse.
Haven't yet tried lower pressures though.
What did you decide on after all?

Sounds good thanx for that. I'd say I'll end up running that size Tyre then and I will lift it up eventually when I have more money to spend.

Same thing happens with mine but only reversing down a slope onto a flat surface with full lock. I just pinned the mudflap to the side step and it seems to stop scrubbing.

Hey guys,
Just about to by the same size BFGs for my standard 2015 SR just wondering what size rims you put them on, the offset and wether you needed to put flares on.

Hi cam,

I have 265/70/17 mickey Thomson P3s on my 14 Sr. I had no lift when they went in, no scrubbing.

That was with an arb bullbar and Toyota trd mags, p30 offset.

Someone may correct me but I think a lot of the scrubbing issues are forward, bullbar will of fixed that.
Cheers,

Ben.

Cheers Ben,

Just put an Opposite Lock bullbar on so that all sounds good to me.

Thanks ;)

Hey guys, all this stuff is covered very thoroughly in existing, very long threads.

Check out the references given by Steveyb above. Also find the fitting 32" tyre thread. No point trying to reinvent the wheel :D
