    From factory TRD off road package with 275/65/r18 TRD wheels;
    Ok, so I need new tires. I was planning on doing rims/slight lift/tires all at once but life stuff got in the way, so Im just gonna get new All Terrian Tires. I have a 2017 limited with the trd 4x4 off road package with stock 18" rims. Truck is completly stock. Current tires are 275/65/r18 HTs.

    From what I understand is you can run 275/70/r18s on stock with no lift and no trimming. I would like a wider tires, so im wondering if I can bump up to 285/70/r18s these would be AT tires (unsure on brand yet, the KO3s are pricey but the tire shop said Nittos are pretty decent. I would like an aggressive tread that wont be ate up too fast by daily highway driving.

    To recap--can I squeeze 285/70/r18s on a bone stock 2017 limited without trimming.

    Also if you have any recommendations on brand for ATs it would be appreciated.

    Thanks.

    Run the 275/70-18s, they fit stock, look great on a stock truck, fit with no issues and there are way more tire choices in that size. They probably cost less than the 285s too.

    285/70-18 also fits stock truck with stock offset wheels, but you may need to lose mudflaps and you will need to lose the little air flaps under front bumper. Very few tire choices in that size.

    Just go to discount tire or tirerack online, enter the size you want to see all choices, pricing.

    Too many, but not enough....
    ^ exactly this. Plus the 275/70 will make your speedometer almost dead nuts accurate.

    I recently upgraded to LT275-70-R18 BF Goodrich All Terrain T/A KO3s. They fit perfect. I live in Colorado at 8,500' elevation and drive in a lot of snow and slush. Great traction in the snow and slush and fairly quite on dry highway pavement. The bigger tires make the truck look better too. My actual speed vs the speedometer is 2mph faster.
