Largest tires on Stock Rebel suspension and wheels

[Daverous]

Thanks. The duratrac tires started pretty quiet for me. With 20k at 75-80 they're by far the loudest thing on the truck. Other than the radio....

How are yours doing? Mine wore out at 30,000 miles that's why got new ones, seems pretty quick, but they say factory tires are made with softer rubber.
These Coopers have a 50,000 mile warranty so another plus

i got 305/70/18 on my reb with stock everything but why do your tires look so much more beefy

Should be around the same height as mine, but yours would just be wider

Honesty they still look pretty good. I'll get a tread depth gauge on them tomorrow when I rotate again. I keep hearing they wear out around 30k so I'm planning for replacement. Seems a bit nuts to have a 30k tire, but I wouldn't put it past the factory. Even a set on katani trail hogs I had took 40k to need replacement due to noise.

So you went with Falcons and a 1/2" Wulf in the front? Did this level the truck? What height did you get out of the Falcons over stock? Full 2"? Did you put a lift in the back?

I did not put lift in the back, just the Falcon shocks. The addition of the Wulf spacer has it "almost level. I think I am about a half inch higher in the rear but hardly noticeable.

I have 32K on my stock tires... rotated every 7,500ish miles... they are fine, really. Very noticeable treadware since new, and they are buzzy at speed... but always have been. I'm on the fence about replacing them before the winter, and if I do, it'll be 285/75's. Certainly serviceable in their current state for the foreseeable future.

So by running the wider TRX wheels you can fit a 12" tire. Looking to do the same. I beleive the offset on those wheels is the same as Rebel stock. Curious how the stance ended up and if you used spacers. With the added height are you getting any rub (front backside edge)? Send a pic, would love to see how it came out.

How much space do you have when turning? I want to run the same tire size on my Rebel and I have weathertech mudflaps.

Just thought about this over the weekend. Would like to move to bigger tires and keep stock 18" rims. Thanks for confirming that 285/75R18 fit without issues, definitely will go that route as soon as stock Duratracs wore out.

By mudflaps you mean wheel well liners or actually mud flaps? I have the stock wheel well liners and have space while turning

I have weathertech plastic mudflaps on the front.

I think would you be fine, but not sure. Looks like they don't stick in much further than the wheel well from pics on the internet

Do you feel that you could push the front slightly higher and do a rear spacer? Reason I ask is because I’m in the same boat as you. I leveled it with the Fox shocks but it’s still not completely where I want it to be. Just wondering if I push it past the 1/2 Wulf would I be stretching it?

Hey guys, what tire pressure are you running on these 35s? Same as on stock Duratracs - 55 front, 45 rear?

Thanks. Was just curious why door sticker on TRX on 35s says 38 PSI, and if I will need to run same pressure on Rebel after switching to softer-than-Duratrac 35s.

Hi DieselRebel, I'm getting close to replacing my factory Duratrac's. They are at 56K and still have another 10K in them. How are your Coopers holding up? I had a couple of sets of Cooper Discoverers on an old 4Runner before they started specializing that line into the AT3/XLT/Etc. I've seen mixed reviews on there tread life, but don't really trust online reviews much. No telling if they are paid to talk a product up or down!

I’m running 295/75R18 on my rebel with air and I never have any issue with rubbing under full lock even then in the lowest suspension setting.

 

[Richkey85]

Sorry mistyped 295/70R18

 

[MO Rebel]

Yes. Here’s a great chart to determine how much.

295/65-R18 vs 295/70-R18 Tire Comparison - Tire Size Calculator | Tacoma World

295/70-R18 tires are 1.16 inches (29.5 mm) larger in diameter than 295/65-R18 tires and the speedometer difference is 3.4%
