Hi there Jun!! My husband and I are troubled by the wheel spacers on your tires. (We are residents of the US) There is a reason why they are illegal in certain countries. Those guys at Redspring should have known better than to offer the spacers as a solution to your offset issues. Please please please go back to Redspring and have them offer the correct rim offset for your tires and take the spacers off ompletely. It is their fiduciary responsibility to ensure your safety. It is very unsafe to have those spacers as they may cause your wheels to fall off & disengage. Be well & stay safe my friend ....

Hi there, thank you so much for your kindness and valuable insight. I really appreciate it :)

A word of advice from someone who lives in a country full of Toyota landcruisers. Wheel spacers are illegal in Australia for a reason. I don’t know if they explained to you that they will alter your steering and put extra pressure on your wheel bearings. I would be changing the rims for a deeper offset. The problem with getting rims from the United States is that they don’t have any experience with landcruisers at all. Australia, on the other hand has been the testing ground for the land cruiser for a very long time. There are several businesses here with all the right equipment that you need. 38 mm spacers are way too thick. Trust me you need to change the rims.

Thank you so much for taking the time. I appreciate your valuable insight :)

That's the first thing I noticed from your choice of wheels, it needed more negative offset. The wheels you had where too inboard and did not fill out the guards enough. In Australia, spacers are illegal. Plus if using them, they put more stress on your wheel bearings - wearing them out faster. It would have been best to choose a wheel which has the required correct negative offset for your vehicle (ie. -20 at least).

Red Springs could have advised you with the correct offset rims suitable for your car. You can also check the offset in your old rim. Spacer whilst it overcome the issue but not the best long term solution.

The truck looks great. Great choice of wheels. I would have addressed the wheel bearing issue by replacing both front bearings. The bigger wheels and tires, plus the spacers, will accelerate the bearing issue.

@JunOutdoors

Күн бұрын

Thanks for your insight. Yes, I have gotten both the front bearings changed and serviced :)

Your vehicle (and mine) is a rare breed so not everyone knows how to service them. If you look under the front of the vehicle, behind the wheel where it meets the axle, you will see a square plug. It is a service plug for adding grease to the front bearings to stop what has happened to your LC. A 14mm 12 point socket will normal get them undone if you don't have the correct square socket. I use a cheap icing bag to get the grease into the hubs. I would also recommend having new wheel bearing both sides and while they have the axle apart, tell them to fit king pin bearings and an axle oil seal, (Genuine Toyota only for oil seals.) Ask if you need any help

Its not good to have spacer at your wheels...you should change the rim that have an offset....theres a lot of rim in the market that suit your LC perfectly without using a spacer

Jun, as pointed out by many experience 4x4 owners. It’s not good to use thick spacer. If Redspring is professional in 4x4, they should have warn you about the wheelset offset when fitting the 285/70/17. You should complain to them that they are not selling you the correct offset wheelset since you are purchasing both wheelset and tyres from them. Typically, we are mostly using 15-16inch rim for our Land Cruiser, and maxxis tyres are value for money here in Malaysia. And I don’t use such big tires for my LC2, it slower, heavier and more stress other than it’s great aesthetic look… 😅

Wow! That's a lot of weights to put on a single wheel to balance it. In my experience, having that much weight means something is not right. Either there is a manufacturing fault on the tyres (or not well made) or on the wheel itself. Let's hope I'm wrong.

That is a lot of balance weights for a new rim and tire.

almost 33 inch tires, that's pretty big but of course it's a Landcruiser so no big deal. Although you may find your fuel economy be affected some what. Honestly, unless you are going to do really hardcore offroading you don't need anything larger than 31 inch tires. Note about the bearing;- Better get it change quick, in my opinion. Those spacers that rest on the hub should be ok since the weight of the vehicle is not resting on only the nuts.

I don't recommend spacers for 4wd especially if you're going for moderate off road that sometimes can stumble into heavy ones. Those balancing weight on the rim seems a bit too much, especially for the new rim. Anyway.. Cheers from kg Buayan, Sabah offroaders.

The wheels and tyre shop should advise you on the correct wheel offsets and also ensure there are no rubbings before they even allow you to leave the workshop.

How is it that after installing they realise that ‘oh its scraping against ur suspension’ Are they not aware (or experienced enough) when they were installing the wheels?
