Looking for a new set of wheels and tires for your 3rd gen 2016+ Toyota Tacoma but confused where to start? Don't worry we've got you covered.
Offset, backspacing, width, and tire size can be complicated, but our Fitment Guides make it easy. Now let's get into what rims and tires fit your 3rd Gen Taco.
As of last year, the 3rd gen Tacoma is officially being replaced by the new 4th gen. So, it might not be the newest, but this is still a brand new truck in our eyes (along with anything newer than like 2015). Yodas are built to last; if the 3rd gen Tacoma is anything like its predecessors, we’re just discovering its capabilities. Despite them being so new, people are already building them into crawlers, overlanders, prerunners, you name it…
There’s tons of aftermarket support, and in terms of mods, wheels and tires are top of the list. In fact, so many combinations have been tried that we already have a strong understanding of what fits. Browsing through the forums and socials, and talking with other owners can give you some good suggestions for what wheels & tires to run. But that’s a lot of work, so we put together this fitment guide as a quick reference for wheel and tire fitment on your 3rd gen Taco - 2016-2023.
Basic fitment info
Lug pattern: 6x139.7 (6x5.5) Nut thread: M14x1.5 Center bore: 106.1mm Lug torque: 83 ft/lbs
Before we talk upgrades, you should know about the stock wheels & tires. What are my stock wheels' specs? Here's a list of possible wheel specs by trim level:
16x7 +23 (SR5)
16x7 +13 (Offroad)
16x7.5 +10 (PRO)
17x7.5 +30 (Sport)
18x7.5 +30 (Limited)
What size of aftermarket wheels & tires fit my 16+ Tacoma?
This is what you’re here for. You at least wanna upgrade your tires, and possibly wheels too.
Recommended tire upgrades
If you just want to put a larger tire on the factory wheels something around 31.6” diameter will fit without any suspension work or trimming. This is a modest increase at only 1” larger than stock. Note that you may have to remove the factory mud flaps. Here is the breakdown of the metric sizes for 16 to 18” wheels:
265/75R16 (31.6 x 10.4)
265/70R17 (31.6 x 10.4)
265/65R18 (31.6 x 10.4)
What’s the max size you can run without lift? Some say 33-inch tires are possible, others say they’ll rub when turning. As we know, info from forums can be all over the place. Because of this, we recommend something under 33” to be on the safe side, here are our recommendations:
285/75R16 (32.2 x 10.8)
275/70R17 (32.2 x 10.8)
265/70R18 (32.6 x 10.4)
Note that these will probably require trimming. Also, these are wide tires, depending on the backspacing of your wheels, they may come dangerously close to the upper control arms. This is one of the arguments for running ‘skinny’ tires, we’ll talk about these more later.
Recommended aftermarket wheel specs
Toyota uses 16” to 18” diameters, so all of these will work, however, if you’re getting aftermarket wheels, 16” or 17” is the preferred size. A smaller rim and larger tire give you some extra cushion for offroading. Offsets could be as high as stock +30, or as low as -25. Negative offsets are better suited to lifted trucks (keeping width and height proportional). Something around a +0 offset, similar to 4Runner specs, is good for a Taco at stock height or with a modest lift. Rim width isn’t too important, but be mindful of backspacing for clearance reasons - 7” to 9” works best.
Note that more aggressive wheel setups have a higher potential for rubbing. Trimming and or lift might be needed.
