    New to the forum, first post here.

    Have a 15' 2 gen trd offroad. I have toytech/eibach springs w/ bilstein 5100's up front giving me aprx. 1.66" of lift. Running the OE 16" trd rims with spidertrax 1.25" spacers as well.

    Currently have 265/75's nitto's swapping out for 285/75 BFG AT's. Would anyone running a similar set up mind offering some detailed advice on the areas of the front wheel well that will need to be cut? Or some pics would be good also! Just lookin' for a 'heads up' so Im not butchering my truck!

    Thanks in advance for your input
    Rodney

    285's rub, just cut out the fender liner, remove the mud gaurds and deal with it. You can try arms to push more caster and make the wheels more forward, but you'll still have full lock rub without doing the cab mount chop.

    I have a 3" lift with es6000 shocks and whatever bs springs I got from them as well. Not sure on my true lift height but I run 285/75/16 KO2s and not too much rubbing. I have aftermarket wheels tho with 4.5 BS. I took off my mudflaps and I also have a high clearance front bumper so that eliminates the issues in the front. Havent done a cmc yet but in the future I am sure I will. I only rub when I brake hard and make a turn

    youre probably right Jeff! Ive stuck to pretty simple trails whenever I go to the mountains and other than that Ive only gone to hollister and frank raines. You have to be careful when its your daily and youre a full time student and part time waiter. I save the real fun for when Im on my yz

    Too many to remember
    Give me another week or two and I will have a solution to fitting 285’s with no trimming!
