Toyota Tacoma Tire Sizes

The Toyota Tacoma's factory tire size depends heavily on which generation and trim you have — the mid-size pickup has climbed from 15-inch wheels in the 1990s to 18-inch all-terrains on today's off-road trims. Below is every current size by trim, how the fitment changed across four generations, and what you can safely step up to.

Tire sizes by generation

  • Fourth generation (2024–present)

    Built on Toyota's TNGA-F body-on-frame platform (shared with the Tundra and Land Cruiser). Base SR and SR5 run 245/70R17; the TRD PreRunner and TRD Off-Road step up to 265/70R17 all-terrains; TRD Sport and Limited move to 265/65R18; and the TRD Pro and Trailhunter wear 265/70R18 — some of the tallest factory rubber the Tacoma has worn.

  • Third generation (2016–2023)

    Ran 16- to 18-inch wheels. SR/SR5 typically on 245/75R16 or 265/70R16, TRD trims on 265/70R16 all-terrains, the Sport on 265/65R17, and the Limited on 265/60R18. Don’t assume a 2023 matches a 2024 — the platform changed underneath.

  • Second generation (2005–2015)

    Settled around 16- and 17-inch fitments — commonly 245/75R16 and 265/70R16, with sport-oriented trims on 265/65R17.

  • First generation (1995–2004)

    The compact-era Tacoma used smaller 15- and 16-inch tires, with several fitments offered depending on cab, drivetrain, and package. Confirm the exact size against your door placard.

Upsizing your Toyota Tacoma

The most common Tacoma upgrade is a taller all-terrain. On the current fourth-gen truck, the TRD Pro and Trailhunter already wear a 265/70R18 that stands about 32.6 inches tall (the TRD Off-Road's 265/70R17 is about 31.6), and many owners step to a true 33-inch tire (for example 285/70R17 or 275/70R18) with little to no trimming. Moving to 34s or 35s generally calls for a leveling kit or small lift plus some trimming of the front bumper and liner, and it will throw your speedometer off until it's recalibrated. Keep the overall diameter within a few percent of stock unless you're ready to address gearing and speedometer error — and always re-check clearance at full steering lock and full suspension compression before committing.

Frequently asked questions

What size tires does a Toyota Tacoma use?

It depends on the generation and trim. On the current 2024–2026 Tacoma, base SR and SR5 use 245/70R17; the TRD PreRunner and TRD Off-Road use 265/70R17; the TRD Sport and Limited use 265/65R18; and the TRD Pro and Trailhunter use 265/70R18. Older generations ran smaller 16- and 17-inch sizes — see the table above for your exact year and trim.

Can I fit 33-inch tires on a stock Tacoma?

On the current generation a true 33-inch tire (such as 285/70R17 or 275/70R18) usually fits the TRD Pro and Trailhunter with little or no trimming, since they already run about 32.6 inches. The TRD Off-Road (265/70R17, about 31.6 inches) and the street-wheel trims have a bit less margin, so results vary — check at full steering lock and full suspension compression.

Are Toyota Tacoma tires staggered?

No. The Tacoma uses a square setup — the same size on all four corners — so tires can be rotated normally and you only need one size when shopping.

Do all Tacoma trims use the same tire size?

No. Within a single model year the size varies by trim — for example the current SR5 (245/70R17), Limited (265/65R18), and TRD Pro (265/70R18) all differ. Always match the size to your specific trim and wheel package.

Where's the correct tire size for my exact Tacoma?

The definitive source is the tire information placard on your driver's-side door jamb, or your owner's manual. The sizes here are the factory fitments by trim; if your truck has aftermarket wheels, the placard still shows what it left the factory with.
