    How much additional positive caster do I need to double the space where my thumb is? Wheel is turned to the left 50%.

    I’m about 2.8 degrees positive already.
    Not doing a CMC...just looking for an answer

    Currently 265/70/17. Not rubbing.

    Just getting a 2nd set of MT’s in 255/75/17 to be sure

    Looks like a CMC is needed more than Caster.

    They are the 4Runner PRO wheels...I think +4mm...they stick out 1/4” more than the stock

    You’re right. I had a number and it was the wrong one. Does +4 sound more accurate?

    Freakin love em. Tuning the adjusters for the type of terrain I’m on makes things very nice.
    This is with 9” (almost full) droop in the rear.

    You're close to 3 degrees that is pretty close to max. Better off trimming or a wheel with less offset. And if you don't rub why care?
