Went with the Method 318 +25 offset on BF Goodrich KO3 285/70/17 from @Discount Tire Still waiting for my black lug nuts.

Perfectly flush with the fenders.
No level kit.

I did 285/70/17

Leveling kit?

No kit and honestly I’m leaving it like this for now. Stock Bilstein feel wonderful as-is.

Have you done a full suspension cycle? I'm looking at the Method 305s with this tire. Also considering 295/70/17 but have a hard time believing that won't rub.

I researched 295 and you would need some sort of lift. 285 is perfect. There are some YouTube videos out with this fitment on light trails doing just fine. This truck was designed perfectly for this size. Toyota knows what’s up.

Awesome looking build! There doesn’t seem to be much rake front to back.
Nice job.

Thank you for your business and support, we greatly appreciate it. Thank you for allowing us the opportunity to upgrade your Taco, It looks fantastic and the 285/70R17 is the tire of choice with the new Gen 4. The black lug nuts will definitely be the finishing touch.

So I’ve been researching MR318’s to put on my Taco, including figuring out which offset to go with, and is it just me or does @Tekoma’s build, with the same exact wheel, tire and offset combo, seem to have more poke than OP’s?

I think it’s just his angles were different than mine. Check out any of the westcott designs builds? He runs +35 and that is super pokey to me.
For me the +25 was the sweet spot with wider tires.

I’ll try to replicate one of his front angles and post updated photos.

I can assure you with this same set up on mine, the side of my truck gets splattered Constantly. Need some better mud flaps.
