Not sure if this is the right thread to post this question but after searching I couldn't find any others that suited better.
I have a 2013 SR5 with the stock 265/65R17 tyres fitted. As most people would know, a lot of tyre brands don't offer this size in their more aggressive treads, with 265/70R17 often being the smallest size.
My question is regarding the gearing - how much performance loss would you notice by moving from 31" to 32" tyres leaving all else equal (eg diff ratios etc)? I do a heap of driving on the open road and love the way my truck pulls like a train up hills etc, and I don't want to lose that if I fit bigger tyres.
Its only a 3% change in diameter so you'd think the change would be pretty minor, but just after some first hand opinions from some people here...
Thanks fellas!

I am also interested in finding out if I change my 265/65/17 Bridgestone Desert Dualers (fitted to KMC XD Addict 17x9 Rims) to a 285/70/17 or a 275/75/17 tyre in which i have found. I have had a 40mm lift in the front and a Heavy Duty Lift in the rear to match.
Cheers,

Can anyone elaborate more for me if these will fit?!?! The only thing I am unsure of is the offset of the wheel.

You're probably better off asking in a 33" tyre thread, 285/70/17 is approx 32.7 inches, and 275/75/17 is 33.2 inches.
If you want something closer to 32 inch you could look at a 265/70/17. They would be fine with a 2" lift.
