285 Tires

Tell that to the person that is backing out of their sloped driveway at full crank.

 

So if I run 265/70r16s up front and 285/75r16s in the rear I shouldn't rub right?

 

Yeah I was trying to talk to the customer and explain in 4wd he is fighting final drive ratios and he said “can you lift it for me “ . Some 4 door jk wranglers came in 2wd . Originally I figured it was one since I mean come on who is gonna wheel that thing . No it’s 4x4 . With someone like that there’s no point explaining it will always rub . He needs to take those rears and put that on a
tricked out bbq trailer Lol .

 

I saw that thread haha. He may not know how to use the 4wd so it may be okay.

 

still doesn’t mean he will ever wheel it

 

Oh ok yeah . Probably uses it for a secondary fancy hat rack .

 

Oh he won’t but he’ll be fighting down the road in the snow .

 

Oh the interior of that thing was great too! Ostrich skin hat in the oh-shit handle and gator skin hat on the unnecessary knob.

 

Yeah it had been a while since I got a good laugh at a vehicle at work but trust me there have been way worse.

 

Foot ——-> OP mouth

 

One thing that the tire size threads prove. Tacomas are originally equipped with too small of a tire.

 

Damn , this thread reminds me of the old EDM boards I used to hang out on.

So yeah, I'm one of those guys with not very many posts, but if this truck lasts nearly as long as I expect it to, that will change very soon. Just figured I'd put it out there, I just put a set of Pro Comp AT Sport 285/70/16 tires on my 2018 TRD off-road with stock rims and a leveling kit up front, and I get rub with the upper control arm at full lock. A bit going forward but definitely more pronounced when going in reverse. I was hoping to avoid wheel spacers, but since I can't really afford a new set of wheels at this point I think that's the route I'm going to have to go. Other than that, I love the way the truck looks. And it tears up the trails as long as I don't have to back up.

The guys at 4 WheelPros assured me there would be no rub, but here I stand. Oh well, still not disappointed with it. Just need to do a little bit more work.
