Can I pull it OFF? 295/70/r17 Toyo MT?
I would love to add these tires..... I do no super heavy off road use so full flex will almost never happen. I will be adding wheel spacers but understand that has nothing to do with lift. Down the road maybe a 2'BB but trying to avoid this....Will these tires:
A. Rub for your, mistake, only buy if lifting that day!
B. May get away with it, have heard of 285's not rubbing and these are just a tad bigger.
C. They will rub but only when wheel is max or max flex....you should be fine. Maybe slight trim of some plastic....
D. Get a size down, the 285's a much better call for your future hope NOT to have to add a 2BB.....
E. These tires suck, own a set and will never buy again! because....
Finally curious people's thoughts on these tires and best place to get them/Toyo's, best I have seen is about 1100 for 4 shipped to boston area. Tirerack does not carry.......wonder if Toyo traditionally runs tall or short? Also would love to get the "true size" as I have heard of tires ranging buy an 1/2 inch or so depending on brand etc... some 295 almost identical size to a 285 of another make?
Thanks

I seriously doubt 295's will fit without rubbing the front air dam and maybe the frame/lower control arms at a full turn regardless if you lift or not. As it is now with 32" tires, you only have 1/2" to spare between said points and the tires. Depending on the make, 285's or 33's may clear them now but just by a hair.

I considered the Toyo. They sound like a quality tire. But they weigh 20#s each more than MTs in other brands at the 315-70 17 size. Thats 83 #s, way more than I want to spin. I'll be getting a 61# AT.

two sizes smaller
man thats a lot of lbs at the wheel which for sure is going to effect MPG and even overall performance over similar sized tire weighling less. Wonder at the 295;s size what the weight difference is? Sounds like they may fit from how this post is going.... if anyone has any other tires recomendations I would love to hear them... these Toyos are not cheap thats for sure.....thanks

QUOTE=zajeep;3666]I put on Nitto Terra Grappler 305/55R20 and there is no rubbing. Looks like a very aggressive tire. Ride is still pretty smooth.[/QUOTE]
I'd love to see a pic of those
