U can fit 265/70-17. -
Thanks ####, so I'm assuming there is no rubbing and still plenty of clearance when the suspension is compacted??Comment

They will rub without lift.Comment

Thanks piggy, was thinking of getting a 2inch lift anyway but was trying to get away without it if possibleComment

2006 prado max tyre size without lift
They will fit but will rub on front when turning, they will chew off the front mudflaps, they will also touch the front inner sway bar on hard lock ( not really an issue)Last edited by Piggy; 20-09-2014, 04:42 AM.Comment

My Wrangler MT/Rs in 265/70R17 fits pre-lift with no issues. The tyres with the squarer shoulder blocks will rub in places mentioned above. But mine didn't.Comment

cheers guys, so i guess just to be safe a lift would be preferable, i always lift my 4x4's but i was wondering with the distance between the guards on the prado i would'nt need one, i usually put on maxxis A/T do you know if they make them at the upgraded size because they are a great ride and quiet on-road as-well as good on the beach??Comment

I had 265/70 BFG's with a 2" sag on my first Prado and never noticed them rubbing on mudflaps.

As Bill said, also for me, if I was to go up a size I would want to change diff ratios as well, 265/70's give me as taller gearing as I am comfortable with.Originally posted by BiLLz0r View Post
