Wife just backed into brand new 4x4. OR bumper. Biggest tire?

I am running 285/70/17x8.5 with -10 offset no lift I did do a lot of trimming and a cmc but I do not rub unless on hard hits. I know that the 285/75/17 is .5” bigger but shouldn’t matter

 

This is tacoma world. Lawyer up and sue her blind.

 

your deductible will be 3,000 a month for life.....that is if she lawyers up......

 

Funny, I was visiting my parents a month after I got my truck. We were having a BBQ and my mom forgot something so she had to run out. As I was watching from their deck, she backed out of the garage and backed into my trucks rear. Was all in slow motion. Back end lifted a little as she went under it as she quickly realized to stop. Left her Avalon with a few scratches and my truck was fine.

She was complaining at thanksgiving today about not being able to see out of her car and I said “you don’t say, mom...”

I know the feeling. Can’t really get mad.

 

Yeah, it happens. I parked wankey. I am still taking advantage to get the bumper (Honeybadger).

If I need suspension I will go that route. If I have to sit on the tires for a while as I save I will do that too. No Worries. I read a lot of back and forth on the matter of these tires fitting. Only one way to find out. I saw most people have good results with 285/75/16x8 0mm backspacing. So I am going to try that. Thanks for the advice.

 

Welcome to TW!

All of what @Sharpish said. I have 285/70r17, should be the same overall dia as the 285/75r16 your getting. I have a 2.5" lift and it can take a lot to stop the rubbing. I'm still working on it and have caused a little damage to my front fenders from max stuffing. Need to trim more this weekend.

Its still pretty easy to drag a HC rear.

 

Sure man. I am prepared for anything. I am going to try. I will report back tomorrow! I think the 0mm backspacing might be the trick. If not, we will know tomorrow!

 

If my wife said that she would be needing braces... haha jokin hope it works out for ya.

 

Welcome to TW and congratulations!! You have to tell me where to park mine for my new bumper too!
