1997 T100- tire questions
I had a few questions. I am looking into getting new tires, my truck is cmopletely stock as i just received it 6 months ago and have yet to change anything. But i am set to fix that.
Am looking into purchasing the 2003 tundra rims-found some for about 150-set of 4, let me know if you have any you want to sell, and am looking at Michelin LTX-A/T 265/70/16 or 275/65/16 something along those lines. Not sure though if my wheel well can handle it.
Does anyone know?

265-75-16 no problem. Same as my T. You will feel a power drop and the trans will hunt for od sometimes but it will be fine. I have been running them for 3 years now. Looks much better!

Do you have the newer tundra or tacoma rims???
the T100 is a 5 1/2 inch bolt pattern right?
How big of a drop in power should i expect? something i can replace with a simple bolt on? And with the tranny, is there a shift kit out there i can buy, or should i just keep OD off untill i need it??
What kind of lift should i expect with the add of tires/rims?? 2 inches?

Not sure on the bolt pattern. I have the stock sr5 rims from 97. I just now saw you are 2wd, I don't know if this will be the same I assumed it was a 4x4.

Hey man you can run a 275/65/16 on there at stock height. that is real close to a 32" tire and I have 32/11.50 A/T tires and they clear fine even when the suspension is in a bind. I lost a little power but not to much to worry about and it hurt my gas millage about a mile per gallon..

When taking into account what sizes fit, remember all of one size are not the same size; start spec'ing them out and you'll see the same size carcass measurments vary. I had 32x11.5 SSRs and trimmed fenders and would still bend fender when I bottomed out.
