    You ready to clearance those 34s?
    Curious to see what kind of trouble those TGs give you cause they are a lot more aggressive than the ATIIs I run.

    Hey man are you running spacers with your 255 85 16 coopers? Just ordered the same tires and planning on putting them on my stock steelers which have 5.5 inch back spacing. Going to use an icon extended travel lift and Dakar springs. Kinda worried about the back spacing on the wheels. Awesome build thread!

    Thank you very much. And to answer your question, no. Just stock alloys no spacers or anything. They fit just fine.

    Hopefully I can get the wheels finished this weekend and maybe mount the tires early next week. Then it will be a matter of finding the time to work on it. Schedule isn't quite as open now a days. But talking to @ajohnson and it seems like it's just an aggressive CMC and a bit of trimming on the bottom of the fender flare.

    How do some people have to cut the cab mounts and deal with pinch welds, and some people have zero of those issues?? :notsure:

    Some people wheel their trucks and others only cruise the malls.

    I like that that's your only point for it, because I wheel mine and have fulled flexed and articulated my front end with my 285/70s and have zero issues with Cab Mount or Pinch Weld.

    Looks about as similar as any mud tire compared to another.

    Now the Cooper STT Pro and KM2 is similar.

    Differences in lift, wheels and tire sizes all factor in.
    I love that the 285x75r17 is getting popular on the Tacoma.

    Still don't see how that affects the cab mount? The more I flex and my tires "stuffs" the farther away it gets from the cab mount.
