There should be another sticker with the tire sizes and pressures somewhere.

There should be another sticker that states the factory tire sizes and recommended tire pressures.

My understanding of the tire size sticker is that they cover the factory original 'minimum' size tire. The larger tires on the v6 trucks were fitted as a dealer prep part or something similar I think and are covered in the Owners manual.

All 3rd gen limiteds say 265/70r16. every other 4runner came with 225/75r15s except sports. the 16 inch wheels on sr5s was a port or dealer installed option. all limiteds have the larger brake rotors and calipers and 15" wheels won't fit.

I have upgrade package #2 on my 2002 4runner SR5, which added the 265/70/r16 tires as well as the 4.10 rear differential. I can see the dealer adding the tires and wheels, but the differential as well?

BTW my door sticker (on the door, not in the door jam) calls out the P225/75/r15 tires.
