    Ok, how far does this stick out compared to a tx pro wheel? With my duratrac 265/75/16, mine sticks out 1.25".

    It is my understanding that the TX Pro wheels are 16x7.5" +15mm offset. The Countersteer Offroad wheels are 16x8" 0mm offset, so the Countersteer Offroad wheels will sit outward approximately .85" more than your TX Pro wheels.

    I think you'd be pleased with the stance. It's nice and aggressive, but not over the top.

    What he's saying is the backspacing is perfect :thumbsup:

    He's running 265/75-16. It's in his list of mods on the side in blue. Also looks like every other 265/75 I've seen :thumbsup:

    Dustin,

    Thanks for the stickers, buddy! Much appreciated. Can't wait to put one on the truck.

    Wheels are still looking awesome. So glad I went with the gun metal.

    Thanks Chaz! Agreed! :D

    Awesome pics! Thank you again! Great tire choice too (the Terra Grappler is my favorite all-terrain tire)!!!

    Okeetee's truck (the truck in the photos) has 265/75R16 Goodyear Duratracs. I did the mounting and balancing for him. :)

    The gunmetal looks awesome on your truck. Everything came together so nicely!

    No problem on the stickers. ;) Thanks for sporting our stickers. :D

    No charge for the stickers my friend. :) Shoot me a PM and let me know your current address. I'll be happy to send you some stickers.

    In fact, anyone who has a set of our wheels (Konig Countersteer, Konig Countersteer Type X, Konig Six Shooter, FN Wheels BFD or FN Wheels Five Star): if you want FN Wheels stickers just PM me your info and I'll send you FN Wheels stickers. :)

    PM sent. I'm sorry, but unfortunately I just sold the last set about a couple of hours ago. More are on their way though, and I can definitely reserve you a set.

    I have a 2011 DCSB and I'm looking at the 16x8 countersteers. I currently have an OME 3" suspension lift (885 springs, 1/4" spacer, shocks) and a full leaf pack in the rear.

    I am thinking about running 265/75/16 on these rims. Does anyone have photos of this or a similar set up? Trying to get a sense of how it would look on the truck. Thanks

    I'll try to find some photos for you. A lot of my customers with full 3" lifts like to install 285/75R16 tires, and most who are running 265/75R16s have 1.75" - 2.25" lifts.

    I have a lot of photos of trucks with 1.75" - 2.25" lifts and 265/75R16 tires.

    Thanks, Dustin. Good talking to you the other day. I haven't completely ruled out the 285, but it seems like an awful lot of tire to be stuffing into a 3" lift. May be pulling the trigger this weekend.

    Nice talking with you too!

    Here's a customer's truck that I did with 17x9" 0mm offset Konig Six Shooters (more aggressive fitment than the 16x8" Countersteer Offroads) with 285/70R17 Toyo AT-II tires. We had to trim the fender liner and a small portion of the backside of the plastic over fender (nothing else). It did not come near rubbing on the cab-mount. He has Bilstein 5100s set to approximately 2" of lift (second highest perch).

    Suspension side clearance (plenty):

    I have also tested the 16x8" Konig Countersteer Offroads with 285/75R16 Nitto Terra Grapplers and Nitto Dune Grapplers on Tacomas with the same lift, and we only had minor fender liner / over fender rubbing. Plenty of cab mount clearance. :)
