Does anyone know what size tire this palisade has on it? I'm having the Truxxx 2" lift installed tomorrow & I want to get these same exact tires this one has as soon as the lift is done. I know they're Falken Wildpeak A/T Trail but I'm trying to figure out if they're 255/50r20 or 265/50r20. Thanks Screenshot_20221115_220915.jpg

I assume the Palisade is not yours, as that information is written on the tire itself.

The exact tire size depends on the model year and Trim level (SE, Limited, etc). The information is provided in the Owner's Manual, which should have been provided to you, but is also available in PDF format on the Hyundai website. But If you provide the model year and trim level, then someone could look that up for you.

Thank you but I can tell just by the look of the tires width that it's not the factory tire size. The factory size for any model with the 20 inch wheels is 245/50R20. I want a slightly wider aggressive looking all terrain tire but don't want to go so wide that it rubs when I turn. The photos above have the exact look that I'm shooting for.

Unless those photos were taken by a member of this (or another) forum, how do you expect anyone to know that? If they were taken by member of this forum, why not send them a forum message or post a question replying to their post?

Also, the tires you mentioned when compared to the OEM differ in other ways besides width. The width of the 265mm tire is obviously 20 mm wider than 245 OEM (10 mm each side). But the 265 tire is also 20mm larger diameter than OEM, so even before the lift your vehicle would sit 10 mm higher than the OEM tire (probably not a problem if you are lifting the suspension). Also, the speedometer will read about 2.8% too low with the 265 tire compared to OEM. After the lift is done, you might be able able to observe the clearances on the existing OEM tires to see if the larger ones will fit.

I believe the owner of that palisade is a member and I did ask about his tires last week but still haven't seen a response yet. I couldn't find where or how to send him a mesage here on the forum. I think I'll wait until I pick up the Palisade tomorrow & check the tire/wheel well clearances like you're saying. Thanks

Click on his name or avitar, and hit "start conversation" to send a private message. But no guarantee he will see it if he has email notification shut off.

When I click on his name or avatar there isn't a "start conversation" tab to click. I'm hoping someone on here recognizes his palisade & might know what size tire he's running.

Went ahead and took a chance & ordered the 265/50R20 tires after the lift was installed & they fit & look great with no rubbing at all Screenshot_20221127_212713.jpg
