2017 Tacoma Limited tire size.
The factory tire and wheel package for the 2017 Toyota Tacoma Limited midsize pickup, the biggest tire it fits at each lift height, and upgrade sizes worked through.
Factory tire size
Our fitment data puts the 2017 Toyota Tacoma Limited on P265/60R18 tires with 18-in alloy wheels — the common factory pattern for this model year rather than a trim mapping we can source. Confirm the exact size on the driver's door placard or the tire sidewall before you buy.
- On the 2017 Limited, P265/60R18 measures 30.5 in tall and 10.4 in wide, with a 6.3 in sidewall and 661 revolutions per mile.
- The 2017 Limited is listed as likely standard on Double Cab, with the tire recorded as all-season.
- Modeled estimate: a stock-height 3rd gen Tacoma like the 2017 Limited tops out near 265/70R17 (~31.6 in) on factory offset. On its factory 18-inch wheel, the tallest size our reconciled rules publish at that height is 265/65R18 (31.6 in).
- Common factory pattern — not verified against a year-specific Toyota document.

What size tires does a 2017 Tacoma Limited have, and what is the biggest that fits?
Our fitment data puts a 2017 Toyota Tacoma Limited on P265/60R18 tires, 30.5 in tall, mounted on 18-in alloy wheels — the common factory pattern for 2017, not a trim mapping we can source. Without a lift, the tallest size our reconciled fitment rules publish for this truck's 18-inch wheel is 265/65R18 at 31.6 in; a leveling kit does not change that answer. The table below runs the 2017 Tacoma Limited through every lift height our 3rd gen Tacoma model covers, as a midsize pickup on factory-style offset — lower-offset wheels or spacers move each row up the work ladder. Confirm the exact size on the driver's door placard or the tire sidewall before you buy.

Upgrade sizes for a 2017 Tacoma Limited, and what each needs
Two steps up from the 2017 Tacoma Limited's P265/60R18, all on its factory 18-inch wheel: 265/70R18, a balanced 33 that needs a 3 in suspension lift; and 275/70R18, a trail fit that needs a 4-6 in lift with minor changes. The speedometer column assumes the truck is still calibrated for the factory tire, and every fit tier is the stricter of our two fitment sources — a modeled estimate for this truck, not an install we measured.
| Size | Diameter | Change from 265/60R18 | True speed when the speedometer reads 60 mph | Fit tier (stricter source) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 265/70R18 | 32.6 in | +2.09 in (+6.84%) | 64.1 mph | 3 in suspension lift |
| 275/70R18 | 33.2 in | +2.64 in (+8.64%) | 65.2 mph | 4-6 in lift, minor changes |
Worked example: will 265/70R18 fit a 2017 Tacoma Limited?
Going from the 2017 Tacoma Limited's 265/60R18 to 265/70R18: the new tire is 32.6 in tall against 30.5 in, a +6.84% change in diameter, and the same width. With the speedometer still calibrated for the factory tire, an indicated 60 mph is really about 64.1 mph and an indicated 70 about 74.8 mph. On fit, 265/70R18 needs a 3 in suspension lift on this truck, the stricter of our two sources (the generation matrix's modeled ceilings). It is a modeled estimate, not a measured install — confirm the exact tire model's moulded diameter and your wheel offset before ordering.
| Measurement | 265/60R18 | 265/70R18 | Change |
|---|---|---|---|
| Overall diameter | 30.5 in | 32.6 in | +2.09 in (+6.84%) |
| Section width | 10.4 in | 10.4 in | 0.00 in |
| Sidewall height | 6.3 in | 7.3 in | +1.04 in |
| Revolutions per mile | 661 | 619 | -42 |
| True speed at an indicated 60 mph | 60.0 mph | 64.1 mph | +4.10 mph |
What P265/60R18 measures on a 2017 Tacoma Limited
P265/60R18 is 265 mm wide at a 60 percent sidewall ratio on an 18-inch wheel. Through standard tire math that is 30.5 in of overall diameter, 10.4 in of section width, a 6.3 in sidewall, and about 661 revolutions per mile — the figures behind the 2017 Limited's speedometer calibration. That package is likely standard on Double Cab, riding 18-in alloy wheels.
Note the P prefix on the 2017 Limited's factory size (P265/60R18): that is a P-metric passenger-rated tire, not an LT light-truck size. The same 265/60R18 in LT form runs a stiffer casing, a higher load rating, and more weight.
No other 2017 Tacoma trim in our data runs P265/60R18. The nearest neighbours on the 2017 chart are TRD Sport on P265/65R17 (the same height) and SR on P245/75R16 (0.1 in shorter) — the comparison to make if you are cross-shopping trims on tire size.
Bigger tires on a 2017 Tacoma Limited
Staying on the factory 18-inch wheel of a 2017 Limited, 1 size in our candidate set clears at stock height with no lift and no clearance work, and inside the modeled stock ceiling of 31.6 in: 265/65R18 at 31.6 in. Set against the 2017 Limited's P265/60R18, the closest of them comes out 1.0 in taller and the same width. Current TRD Sport and Limited 18-inch factory-class size.
Past that, the 18-inch sizes our set offers a 2017 Limited need suspension or clearance work: 285/65R18 (32.6 in) sits behind a 3 in suspension lift with minor changes, 265/70R18 (32.6 in) sits behind a 3 in suspension lift, and 275/70R18 (33.2 in) sits behind a 4-6 in lift with minor changes. Where the two sources disagree, the stricter tier is the one shown: the 3rd gen Tacoma matrix's modeled ceilings are stricter than our per-size table for 285/65R18, 265/70R18, and 275/70R18. Those tiers come from our fitment rule-set, not a truck we measured; lower-offset wheels push each one harder into the fender.
Add a leveling kit and our generation fitment matrix estimates a 3rd gen Tacoma at 275/70R17 (~32.2 in) — 1.7 in taller than the 2017 Limited's P265/60R18. Clearance work it lists: Remove mud flaps. 285/70R17 (33s) fits street-only with fender-liner trim + heat gun, but rubs off-road at full lock. These are modeled estimates, not measured installs: offset, alignment, and the tire's real moulded size all move the answer.
Where the Limited sits in the 2017 Tacoma lineup
Sorted by factory tire diameter, the 2017 Tacoma trims we cover run from P245/75R16 at 30.5 in (SR and SR5 4-cylinder) up to P265/70R16 at 30.6 in (TRD Off-Road and TRD Pro). The Limited's P265/60R18 is 2nd of the 4 distinct sizes in that spread: 2 trims run a taller factory tire and 2 run a shorter one.
A caution for 2017: this model year is not proven against a year-specific Toyota document, so read the size above as the common factory pattern for a 2017 Limited, not a verified trim-level spec. 2017 through 2020 share the same factory tire lineup, and 2017 sits inside that span. The door-jamb placard and the sidewall on the truck settle it.
Top-ranked 265/60R18 tires for a 2017 Tacoma Limited

Scores are a 0-10 editorial synthesis of published reviews, manufacturer specifications, and retailer fitment data — not tires we tested ourselves. Availability in 265/60R18 for the 2017 Limited comes from that dataset's own size catalog, and the shortlist follows the dataset's editorial rank — the 0-10 figure beside each pick is the blended score, one input to that rank rather than the thing it sorts on, so a model further down the rank can carry a higher number.

2017 Tacoma Limited tire questions
Not at stock height. On the 2017 Limited's factory wheel, the 33-class size in our candidate set that needs the least work is 265/70R18 at 32.6 in. Our two sources disagree here, so this page publishes the stricter one: our per-size table alone would rate it for factory height, but its 32.6 in is past the modeled 3rd gen Tacoma ceilings below a 3 in suspension lift. Plan for a 3 in suspension lift, and treat both sources as modeled estimates rather than installs we measured.
Our data lists the 2017 Limited on 18-in alloy — an 18-inch wheel. Across the whole 2017 range we cover 16-inch, 17-inch, and 18-inch wheels, so wheel diameter is one of the things that changes between trims. Keeping the factory diameter keeps the sidewall the truck was tuned for, and it keeps the tire choices in our size data open to you.
On a 2017 Limited, P265/60R18 works out to 30.5 in of overall diameter and 10.4 in of section width, on an 18-inch wheel with a 6.3 in sidewall. The math is the standard one: 265 mm of width at a 60 percent ratio gives the sidewall, and diameter is the 18-inch rim plus twice that sidewall. At that size the tire turns about 661 revolutions per mile.
Open the driver's door of the Limited and read the tire and loading information placard on the door jamb: it carries the original tire size and the cold inflation pressures set for it. Then read the sidewall of the tire actually fitted, since a previous owner may have changed sizes. For 2017 we treat the Limited mapping as the common factory pattern rather than a sourced trim-level spec, so the placard outranks any table, including this one.
On the 2017 Limited's factory 18-inch wheel, the tallest size our reconciled fitment rules publish at stock height is 265/65R18 at 31.6 in, with no clearance work. The 3rd gen Tacoma matrix's own stock ceiling, on any wheel, is 265/70R17 (~31.6 in). A leveling kit does not change the answer on this wheel diameter: no taller 18-inch size in our set clears until a bigger lift. These are modeled estimates for a midsize pickup on factory-style offset, not measured installs; lower-offset wheels and spacers move every answer toward more work.
