#1 of 8 Can larger tires be used in place of original tires for Sequoia? by freddie_engine Jan 02, 2007 (11:59 am)
I have a 2003 Sequoia which I love. It has about 51K miles on it and is ready for new tires. I have always thought that for the size of the vehicle, the tires are rather small (their profile that is). The current size is 265/65/17. I'd like to know if there's a downside with using larger (profile only) than the OEM tires. I was thinking 265/70/17.   Can anyone comment on this please? Thanks!

Replying to: freddie_engine (Jan 02, 2007 11:59 am) That's a little over an inch bigger in height/diameter. The vertical travel of the springs should accommodate that height; however, you will want to check the clearance in the wheel well around the inside corners of the tire when the wheel is turned all the way to the left and right..it may rub. The bigger tire also means that the rollout of the tire would be about 3.3 inches longer so your speedometer will read a little slower than you are actually traveling (slightly over 2 mph off)

I upgraded/upsized to the Goodyear Triple Tread tires 265/70/17 ( GREAT ride, comfort and best all round tire)... My previous ones where Dunlaps the 265/65/17. The new tire size looks great..No problems with the fit. I always thought my old tires made the back end look out of proportion with the tire size. Now it looks perfect like custom tires...They ride great
#4 of 8 Toyota Sequoia wheels 20inch vs. 17 inch by sam1010 May 04, 2008 (3:58 pm)
I have a 2006 Toyota Sequoia Limited 4X2. After 24K miles the Dunlop Grandtrek At20 265/65 17 Tires are shot. I was going to put 17 inch Pirelli ATR's on, but I was thinking of upgrading to a larger wheel & tire. A 20 inch wheel. What are the Pros & Cons of moving up to a 20inch wheel & tire?  Or should I just put the Pirelli's on? Replies to this message: rizp (Oct 30, 2009 8:38 am)
#7 of 8 Sequoia 2008-2010 Wheel Concerns by topwater Sep 09, 2009 (4:51 am)
I just bought a 2008 Sequoia and the rear wheels lean slightly in. I took it back to the dealership and that said that was the way it was designed. They showed me a 2010 Platinum and said it was the same way. Won't that make the tires wear unevenly? Has anyone else noticed this?

Replying to: sam1010 (May 04, 2008 3:58 pm) I have a 07 Seqouia 4X4 Limited with 265/65/17. The tires are getting bad. Just like sam1010, I am considering pluz sizing to 20" wheel, with possible 285/50/20 tires. I didn't see any reply from sam11010's inquiry. I appreciate any advise, pros and cons. Thank you much!
