    What are you running for a spare?
    I just don't think the 265/70/16 spare undermine will cut the mustard with my 35/11.5/17s I got on order.
    Edit: whoops just noticed you're running those on a Jeep.
    I'm curious what others with this size are doing for a spare underneath.

    It is on a Gladiator, so a 35" spare fits with plenty of extra room in the spare location. Agreed on your tire size difference. I think you should be able to squeeze a 285/75R17 under the Tacoma with some BFH 'adjustments' to the metal tire guides. I got my 32s under the Tacoma fine doing that. It wouldn't be a full size obviously, but would still be drivable to get the tire repaired.

    Looks like I wont be getting my tires mounted until Monday and CMC on Friday.
    Just ordered some white and silver paint markers to experiment on the lettering since I'm a white lettering fan.
    Since I got a good Idea what the white lettering will look like why not try some silver letters to go with silver mica Taco?

    I almost ordered some 1" lift blocks and new U bolts for the rear but I think I should hold off on that until I see what my jigsaw cutting skills make it look like as I have a 1.5" rake as of now which is almoist perfect to me.
    I think I'm gonna cut 2" in the front and 2" in the back.
    Gonna beat the pinch weld outwards and heat gun the fender flares tomorrow .
    Current measurements from the ground to fender while on 265/75/16s are
    FD: 38 3/8
    FP: 38 1/4
    RD: 39 3/4
    RP: 39 3/4

    Posted in some other threads. Finally got my ATIII's on the truck. Mounted them to RockTrix wheels. These are 285/70/17's. Had to trim some of the wheel well, and just this morning, I fully locked the wheels in reverse, and I ever so slightly rubbed the cab mount. Looks like I'll have to chop it.

    All that aside, these tires are super smooth and relatively quiet on the road. Really liking them so far (however, have only driven 200 miles on them)

    Cab mount chop scheduled Friday then I'll mount them up.
    Had them put the raised lettering out and I'm debating between painting the letters white or silver.

    Got a bunch of snow last week....yes, in Texas. Fun week. The tires did great. Pretty much went wherever I wanted with no issues.

    I think Toyo is really dropping the ball by not offering more whitewall options.
    Decided to take an oil based white sharpie to them last night.

    Curious why some prefer whitewall tires? Just preference?

    I just think it looks good. Makes the tire look beefier with the contrasting color breaking up the solid black.

    Have you gotten these mounted yet? I'm really interested in these 35x11.5s, 12.5 is just too wide in my opinion

    Just had the AT3s put on my truck yesterday and all I can say is damn. I like the look and the feel of the tires all the same. Went with 285/70/17s and am stoked I went with the toyos after being torn between the KO2s and the Falken Wildpeaks

    Not yet.
    I will tomorrow after I get my CMC.
    I'm hoping this will be enough, as I don't do any wheeling or crawling, so that I can get away with not need a cab mount relocate.

    Edit: Went to get the CMC and it was a no go which I was afraid of.
    Dude said it they were gonna rub the mount even with a deep chop and even then I wouldn't have been able to drive it home cause the tires would have been all over the fender flairs.
    Looks like I'm gonna order Lil B's cab mount relocate and break out the jigsaw before I get that done.
    The tech was trying to get me to go to a 6" lift but I ain't about that life.
    I prefer to stick with the OME 887s and just hack the fenders ya dig.

    Won't be able to do the fenders until next weekend as its gonna rain for a week straight here in SE TN and I don't have a garage.
    The mod life saga continues...

    Edit edit: Got a Lil B's relocate kit on order from Runnin4tacos and an appointment with Hudlow Axel in Rossville GA for next Friday.
    Anyone in the Chattanooga/Cleveland TN area I would highly recommend Hudlow as they did my 4.30 regear/Trutrac and have very reasonable rates for high quality work.
    Hell I might just ask them to chop my fenders/flares while I'm there since its just $75 an hour

    Are those wheels 0 offset? If so an alignment should fix the rubbing. I was rubbing in the same area. Had the alignment adjusted per my lift and all rubbing was gone.
