The Mystery 1st Gen Tundra

Does anyone know what kind of wheels and tires this Tundra has? If you type ('03 Tundra 2.5" lift) into Google, the search results show this truck. I'm trying to get mine to look like this. What kind of wheels, tires, lift, deflectors, etc? Please and thanks!!

 

There are many options for lifting, some are horrible so it's good you're doing your research. It would be helpful if you also post a pic of your truck so we know what we're working with, and what kind of budget we have to work with.

 

I have the same truck as the picture just want the same rims and tires but can't tell what size they are and what make / model. I'm probably going with Bilstein 5100's and OME springs in a 2.5" kit to lift and level the truck.

That's a vintage 8-hole style. They MIGHT be MT Classic IIs judging by what I can see of the center cap. Those were discontinued in about 2013/14-ish. Maybe even 2012. So depending on the vintage of that picture, those may actually be MT Classic IIIs. The center cap looks a bit off from the Classic III, but it's so small it's really hard to tell. The rest of the wheel, from what I can tell, is a tossup between the III and the II.

The other option would be Procomp 69 Vintage as it has more dish options. Again, center cap is different, but center caps can change over time.

Real tough to tell EXACTLY what those wheels are, but I can confidently say those are classic, 8-hole faces. Polished finish of course. As far as modern 8-hole wheels go, those 2 are going to be the most popular.

They could very well be some old, actually classic 8-hole wheels. If that's the case, good luck.

 

Looks like Mickey Thompson Classic 2 wheels
Looks like the old Yokohama Geolander M/T tires from like 2005-2012 but those are not exactly like the Yokohama tread pattern, that might be a knock-off like that place in Memphis makes of the BFG tires ect. If i had to guess i would venture to say that is a 285/70/17" tire
The lift looks like a 2.5-3" up front and about a 1.5" in the back, might be an add-a-leaf or a 1" block or something like that.

Are you sure those are the wheels you want? Looks like something a chevy driver would rock. Maybe a dodge guy that wanted to be cool.

 

Rick McCool, probably a cousin of stink bug Jim

 

Those are Mickey Thompson Classic III wheels and Mickey Thompson Baja Claw tires.

 

Thanks everyone for the responses, I think that truck looks clean and I'd like the same look for mine. I like simple polished / chrome wheels not sure what the deal is with all these crazy black rims.. reminds me of spare tires or police vehicles or something.. srry not my thing and no I'm not a DJ. I'm a recording artist and I sell my music on my website. Anyways once I get the truck fixed up I'll post some pics. Thanks everyone!

I believe @BluegrapeVr6 has those exact wheels on his truck. They look great. If you haven’t already read all the shit you need to know about lifting in the wheels/tires/suspension section of this post, highly recommend checking it out, especially wheel offset info. It looks like that truck is rocking 275/70r17 for rubber. Same/close to what my truck is on currently with same cab type and specs minus all the bullshit bug/wind deflectors. Very similar lift too, with 2.25” front and roughly 1.75” out back (or something).
