    I have a 23 TRD Pro and I don’t know if this has been addressed or not but do these uppers give anymore tire clearance? Looking to fit the smallest Yokohama Geolandars MT’s (265/75/16) without lifting if that’s possible. Love the aggressive look, just don’t want to mess with the suspension just yet.

    those will fit just fine on the stock trd pro suspension with the trd pro wheels. I have -20 offset wheels with 265/75/16 tires and they still don’t rub anywhere

    What are our options when the ball joint wears out?

    I think it’s reasonably understood that the OEM ball joints are far superior to any of the after-market choices. If they ever wear out, is there a reason you’d want to go after market?

    I may have misread an earlier post and thought the balljoints on these aluminum UCAs weren't replaceable.

    If that is the case that’s not a great move by Toyota. I assumed they could be pressed out, but maybe no?

    Falken Wildpeak 265/75/16 on my ‘22 Pro. Fit fine no rubbing at all. My truck rides so nice, I am not going to mess with any of the suspension.

    I have read that the red UCAs actually give you less room. Apparently 285’s are no go with the shiny red UCAs and stock offset wheels. The tires will run the UCA.

    Isn’t this forum littered with flashy flash? Tires and rims replacing a perfectly acceptable set as an example.

    I installed a complete '23 Pro Suspension about a month ago. No rubbing, no issues. I am running 265's.

    From what I researched It all depends of what 285 you are using. If it's an aggressive mud tire with aggressive side wall than no it won't fit these arms, but If it's a mild All Terrain tire with mild side wall than it should fit. It all depends on the tire. Please see video below with 285's on this 2023 Pro.

    https://youtu.be/ap_wKrEloGM?si=1MFFW_7yICx7xWgj


    Here's another video of a new Pro with the arms and aggressive mud tires with aggressive side wall and they do not fit with these arms. Spacer is needed.

    I went with 265/75/16. Plenty of tire for the type of off-roading that I do and no rubbing.
