OFFICIAL - 3rd GEN 275/70r17 Tire Thread

I did a CMC about a week ago as it was definitely needed. I also cut some of the plastic fender liner out. As of right now there is no lift on the vehicle, planning on a full Bilstein setup in the future. Still slight rubbing when flexed out.

 

im about to install the 17" trd pro wheels with these tires as well. i was figuring to get one of these steelies for the spare, assume its cheaper than the pro wheel. can you recommend where to purchase?

 

looked on the boards for weeks checking things out re wheels and tires and lifts. just wanted to let you know i love your set up and basically modeled what im going for off your truck. cheers!

 

Just upgraded susp and tires.

- OME MT-64 2.5 lift
- 275/70/17 Falken Wildpeak AT4W
Feels great, I removed the front mudflaps and the rub is gone

 

Just installed Falken Wildpeak at4w 275/70/17 tires
Pro comp bandido rims -6 offset
I have Bilstein 5100 shocks all around front set at 4th setting

no rub

I removed the front mudflaps

 

After some CMC magic all turned out well.

 

have anyone tried 275/70r17 on trdpro sema wheels (+4mm offset) and with stock suspension?
Wanted to see whether that would rub anywhere.

 

new at4s with TRD lift and sema wheels

^^kingcong, my opinion is they would rub. not sure where, but i only have the tiniest bit of clearance

 

I had them, minor rub front flaps full turn in reverse. nothing to worry about.

 

275’s still going strong.

 

I joined the club today.

 

Looks good. What lift do you have?

 

Bilstein 6112/5160 with Icon add a leaf.

 

What lift do you have? Looks perfect!

 

Thanks.

I have about 1.5” all round. A bit of an assortment of parts, so not really a lift kit I could direct you to.

Front is Bilstein 5100s, with OME 2888 springs, set at second notch, for the weight of the steel stub bumper and winch. 1/4” steel “taco lean spacer” on the driver side.

Rear has an no-name add-a-leaf (added by a spring shop right into the factory pack to handle the weight of the canopy) and a 1” block to maintain rake. I have Billstein 5160 shocks in the back FWIW.

Truck sits about 1” higher in the rear than front when not loaded for camping. Is level with gear in the back.

Not the most fancy solution, but honestly it’s been perfect for my uses.

I have no issues at all with driveline vibes, no axle wrap, I did not replace the needle bearing, and have no rubbing with 275’s, with pretty much full articulation maintained.

 

Gotcha! I’ve been waiting to install my 5100’s, AAL, and 888 for a couple months now. Basically waiting until I need new tires since I’m still on 265’s. Your build is exactly the look I’m going for so I appreciate the reply!

 

Same here, except I plan on keeping stock springs with the 5100. My 265 Cooper Rugged Treks are almost at 4/32. While I wear them down, I'm trying to decide between 275 Toyo AT3, Toyo R/T Trails, or BFG K03. Decisions, decisions...

 

The KO3’s are tempting!

 

No problem. Hope it works out for you. 5100s punch way above their weight class. Great product.

 

Thanks for the details. If I were to modify my 3rd gen DCLB I'd consider what you did. I think It would be perfect for my needs.
