If it is a 5 speed most likely you will want 5.29's or 5.71's I run 5.29's on both my 22re and my 3.0 4runners should have gone to 5.71's on the 3.0 but both run 35 x 12.5 x 15's

If auto 5.29's

IIRC

Oh Ya more info on your truck is always helpful 22r/re/ret , 3.0 , auto , 5 speed , those kinds of things as well as what your most likely to be using it for i.e. rock crawler , mall crawler mudder , you can see where this is going and how it will help people help you out right?
