Northern Virginia Roll Call

+2.25 per side LT, -38 9” wides and no flares. A recipe for maximum poke

 

There are some for sale in VB, 5 of them.

 

Are these on market place I can’t find em. Also how far will they stick out?

 

They would poke out 3.5” more than the stock TRD off-road wheels.

8.5” wide -10 would poke 2” more than stock wheels.

 

That’s alot of pokeage

 

That’s good, I’m not going crazy. I know this will be slightly different with different trucks/alignment but do you still hit CMC or fender at full stuff?

FTFY

 

This is stock width and -38’s to give you a better idea. The lack of flares definitely adds to it, because those provide about 2” of coverage.

 

Talking stock width here, on my old wheel setup I tubbed my firewall. Cycled the suspension and full stuff lock to lock I cleared. Cut a hole in my firewall and whittled my cab mount down to nothing.

Switched to -38s and the extra poke caused me to start rubbing again, albeit just a small amount. -38s and 35” tires are no joke on stock width, they’ll take a lot of work to not rub.

Now with the LT and pivot point pushed outward (and forward thanks to this specific kit) I no longer rub anywhere again, full stuff lock to lock.

edit: to clarify I welded sheet metal back over the hole and sealed it up, I don’t drive my truck around flintstone style.

 

So u think a 285 be about 1.5” on a 3rd gen

 

My takeaway is that long travel stops rubbing thus I need LT haha. I thinking that I can skip the Cab mount relocate if I jump to LT.

*edit x2* I want LT for LT but these are good side effects I wasn’t aware of hah

Holy crap! I though that was a relocation but it’s your stock CM. I appreciate your style hah.

I don’t know the measurements (not sure it really matters) but here’s my 3rd Gen with -38s on 285/70r17 for reference. If the numbers do matter, I can get them in the morning.

 

I honestly don’t know how tire width would play into that. Seeing JT’s 285s on -38’s seems like a very reasonable amount of poke.

Long travel all the things!!!

 

Numbers don’t matter but do u rub and what lift?

 

What does the SCS go for? What’s a reasonable price?

 

A set of 4 ray10 for my tundra was 1300 delivered or so. So 1700 for a set of 5 is probably about what you’d pay if you bought direct.

 

imagine having to cut your cab mount

this post was brought to you by skinny tire gang

 

It’s mainly near the CMC area but seems to hit my fender in a way that pops my flare tabs out and makes it flop in the wind. Fox 2.5 ext. travel with 700lbs springs. I think it’s up 2 or 3 inches …not sure. I might be rubbing more ,because I’m sagging in the rear, that others would.


That was with shipping to VA.

 

Imagine not being called thiccums though. Which ones worse.

I went the skinny route too and yeah it's nice not rubbing but every time I look at them I wish I had thiccums

First world problems...
