    Hey all. Been a while since I posted. 2019 Tundra TRD. 2" level in the back, 3" in the front. I am currently running 275/60R20 on stock rims.

    I want to go to a skinny tire. No more of this 10" and wider crap. I would ideally like to go to a more retro taller skinnier tire look but finding a tire is unbelievably hard. I don't want to lose height (currently about 33") but want to drop at least an inch off width.

    Been trying to use the tire comparison website and would love to find a 235/70R20 tire. That would allow me the same height but I would go from 10.8" to 9.3" in width. Nobody makes that tire that I can find. Have tried tirerack and discounttires. I have even tried looking at walmart cheap tires.

    Looking for an AT or MT tire. Do I need to look at commercial tires? What am I doing wrong?

    If you change rims you should have more options, going to a 18 or 17 inch rim will open up more options.

    Not a cheap fix, unless you find a good deal.

    275 70 R18, but if your lifted you may need to go larger

    MT Baja Boss has a 255/85R18 size. That's 34.57" tall with a 10.03" section width. It's a 10" wide 35. (35s are actually 34.5" tall)

    Kenda Klever makes (or made?) an AT KR28 in 275/80R18. 275 is 10.82" wide, but the tire is again the same as a 35 in height.

    Thanks for the help everyone. 35" is too tall. I like the look of mine at 33" but I don't want something wider than 10". I would prefer to get to that 9" range.

    MT Baja Boss I might have to look in to.

    255/80R17 has 8 options on discount tire. That's your 33x10, but you'd need to go to 17" rims. I'm not sure a 33x10 exists in an 18" rim.

    255/70R18 is a 32x10, and there are tons of options in that size.
