    Thank you SR5 4x4... thats what i want to hear. my only concern was that 265s would look too small but if they ride nice and fit well then i think thats the direction i need to go in.

    just curious what did you do with the rear of your rig? size lift? aal?

    265's wont look as small if you go with a 16" rim. Thats what I have and it looks perferct.

    Tint, tinted tails + 3rd brake light, shaved tailgate, painted calipers. TSB Leafs+ AAL, PA/CB, 5100 Bilsteins set @ 2.5 up front. Satoshi line-x'd grill.

    i have stock 17" sport rims.. spidertrax spacers all around and 285/70/17 GY Wrangler MT/R's.. i ONLY rub on the plastic piece below the fender.. cut that away a little bit, or completely off and you will be totally fine..

    i never trimmed any of it and only hit on full lock,,, more so in reverse.


    dooo it.. doo it. youll love the look..
