Falken WildPeak AT3W on 17" TRD Pro Wheels

Good to know. I'm taking my truck in tomorrow to see what they say. I swapped my right and left fronts and the pull to the right is less, but is still there. I'm wondering if I just knocked my truck out of alignment.

 

Truck looks good! How is the UCA/tire clearance with that wheel/tire setup?

 

This truck looks so damn good! I love the look of the stock suspension with the black rims and bigger tires. Did you do any other mods on it besides the wheels and what looks like a Pro grill? I'm particularly curious about the headlights and tail lights. Are those stock?

 

Clearance is good. No rubbing issues anywhere.

 

Besides tires/wheels and factory Pro grill I put LED headlights and fogs in.

 

Recently installed 265/70R17 wildpeak AT3W LT on the gunmetal version of the TRD wheel. Looks great with the cement paint color.

 

Has anybody found some mudflaps that work with stock suspension and 265/70/17's? I've tried the rekgens and the OEM mud guards and both rub pretty badly.

 

Your truck looks great. Trying to buy some mudflaps (rekgens or OEM) and was hoping to go down the same road with larger tires on stock suspension. Would like to hear anymore input or direction on what you plan to do with your rubbing issues. Would your tires rub even without the flaps on? Is lifting the truck the only option to rectify that?

 

The real question is how is the ride quality ... on and off road ...

 

I've got rekgens and no rubbing. You need to put the short spacers in front.

 

I have the short spacers in front, I don’t think flaps wouldn’t work otherwise since the short spacers are too short for the rears.

Are you lifted? I get severe rub at full turn in reverse...and doing a little research it seems like everybody else with this set up does as well. There simply isn’t enough room for the wheel to turn unless your tires are severely lacking tread.

I would love to be proven wrong though!

 

I have Tuffskinz and also get severe rub. I had to remove the fronts.

 

I think you've got the wrong spacer there. My mudflap touches the fender liner by the inside screw. Yours does not seem to.
I'm stock sport suspension, sema wheels and 265/70/r17 wildpeaks.

 

oh that’s weird! I know I have the shorter spacer that was provided in the front since only the long ones would allow the rears to be mounted.

Did you buy your flaps recently or a long time ago? I wonder if they changed the sizes at some point.

would it be too much to ask for you to measure the size of the spacer bolt?

 

No rubbing once the flaps were removed! I’m on stock suspension. The set up look absolutely awesome however just be aware that the TRD sema wheels + the wild peaks are HEAVY. I lost about 1-2mpg and can feel the weight when accelerating and break but not enough to go with a different set up. I might go with a lighter tire next time but so far I’m extremely happy with the wildpeak performance.

 

I bought the rekgen flaps same time as new wheels and tires, about 5 months ago. I put the wrong spacers in front at first, and they rubbed terrible in reverse.
Other folks on here talked about cutting their spacers shorter. I can't remember if I did that (sorry).
Just cut your spacer down until the flap is pulled into the liner.

 

Thank you!! By spacer do you mean the little rubber tube thing or cut the actual bolt itself?

 

The rubber tube... it just needs to shorter so the flap gets pulled back and away from the tire. That should do the trick.
Triple check to make sure you don't have the front spacers in the rear. I remember some screws were longer than others. I felt a little silly once I figured it all out.

 

Left would go on the front (short) and right would be on the rears (long), right?

I would cut the front spacer correct? There’s not much to cut to being with lol

 

I thought the short ones go in front. But I'm old and confused.
Bottom line is get the flap back against the liner and no rubby.
