I had been looking for this mod and your explanation its the best thank you.

Best teaching I have found for this. Thanks.

smack my head. why did it take watching like 40 plus videos just to finally see this and get the answers i needed. thank you

Best video for this mod. Finally straight to the point. I'd buy you beer if you were here. Thanks for the video brother

Thanks brother! Put some bigger AT's on the wife's rig and caught a rub on the liner so was running down the path of a small lift which was unnecessary. Then I found this video and 30 minutes later all was good!!

YOU SAVED MY LIFE BROTHER WITH YOUR TUTORIAL. I HAD THE SAME PROBLEM, TREMENDOUS IDEA AND SOLUTION TO THOSE OF US WHO ARE GOING FOR BIGGER TIRES AND RIMS, GREETINGS

Great demo! For some reason I thought you needed to do the body chop with going to 285/70/R17s. Thought it was recommended to go to larger rim with that large of a tire as the stock rims are a little skinny for this application. If I rememver right it has do to with the risk of breaking your bead in air down situations.

What about 255/75/17 or even 255/80/17?

What do you suggest for a trd pro 4runner 2019? That has the stock Fox shocks on there? I have the 275s on there with a Southern Style off-road high clearance bumper mod cut, and SSO winch bumper. So basically the front is cut. I do go off-road for my photo work. Nothing hardcore but still off-road. Do I need to cut anything in the back to fit 33s on a stock trd pro? Trouble when compressed and so on? Debating throwing on 33s. Keep going back and forth.

285/70/17 should fit, but slight differences in tire brands and wheel offset can make a difference.

What works for him may not work for everybody else. Keep in mind he's on stock wheels. Wider rims and negative offset will most likely required more trimming/chopping

Does the 285 tire make the ride more comfortable? I would like to optimize for comfort for city/highway driving

@RevereOverland

Жыл бұрын

It can. More sidewall between the wheel and the road can help when hitting bumps and potholes. On the other hand, bigger tires often come with a thicker sidewall (don't get E rated tires), which can have the opposite effect. Most people choose to go with bigger tires to help with off road driving; the more you can air the tire down, the better it rides on bumpy trails.

@paultohh

Thank you for your response and the tips. I will keep in mind the tire rating and avoid the “E” tires. I have the 2010 limited edition and don’t do off-roading (it’s red not awd) so i mainly just want the ride to be as comfortable as possible for city and highway.

hmmmm, my 2020 has the windshield washer fluid reservoir right behind pass fender liner, I can only move it maybe a 1/2 of an inch. Is the previous models like this to??

Update: I pushed the fender liners (super easy, as you said)... but now I see the fender itself is *SUPER* close to the tire at full lock. Like, too close for comfort. Gonna leave it for now but may end up trimming the actual fender with a utility knife if I make contact on uneven terrain or something. Also, the tires are literally brand new. After 10k miles I’ll gain a tiny bit more space o guess

Revere Overland maybe it’s because I’m 1.75’’ higher than stock? Seems like that would make it better, not worse... but the bottom part of the fender liner that curves back in towards the tire was moved up and thus closer to the middle of the tire, so who knows

Do you have aftermarket upper control arms? Many aftermarket UCA's require more backspacing to clear the UCA when running a 32.5 or larger tire. You likely need different wheels or a hub centric spacer like one from spidertrax. But then you'll probably need a BMC and fender cut in front..
