oem alloy question
Hi I am new to asking questions but old to reading the fourm. I have a 98 2.7 4x4, 5spd, xcab. My question is when the factory alloys were ordered did they come with tire other that the the 31s, thanks

thanks for replying, I know what mine came with basic truck 225x75x15s. I recently bought a nice set of the factory alloys hoping to mount a set of 31's but did not consider 3:58 gears. I really dont want to regear just because I liked the alloys. So now I am looking for an alternative but dont want to put the 225s on the alloys might look a little to small. I am now thinking 235s might be a decent compromise and not look out of place. Just courious if they offer such a combo.

I know the 4runners came with either 225/75/15 or 31" on 16" rims. My 97 had the 225/15's (2.7l 4wd 5spd) and i swapped 32"s on there without regearing. Mine has 4.10's though... Not sure if you are wondering about running 31's with your current gearing or...
The 235's should work fine, I had those on my 2nd gen for a few years, but they are a very small amount bigger that the 225's. Not sure where you are, but maybe you can borrow someones 31's for a test drive if you know someone nearby with the stock 31's.

My Tacoma says 225" on the door jam but has factory alloys and 31's. I asked this question somewhere a while back and found out the door jam sticker is known to be incorrect for some Tacomas that had factory 31" tires. I saw you posted this question on TTORA as well and I think one of the members has a website explaining all the stock gearing/tire options.
Edit: http://www.ttora-ne.com/RI/axlechart.htm I found the info on this site but it it's working right now.
