I stayed with my stock TRD Pro wheels (+4 offset), stayed below 3" in lift and I didn't need a BMC to fit my 33" tires. I opted for the non-testosterone look. I went with pizza cutters. Falken Wildpeak 255/80-17 A/T3W. No rub. No scrub. No slipping on spots where the wide boyz slip. A lot less dirt, rocks and junk get thrown up on to the sides of my 4Runner. Life is good.
I’m only on 2 inch lift with -12 offset wheels on 285’s. Didn’t need body mount chop. Only minor trimming on the leading edge of the front bumper and removed mud flaps
I think the bro crowds getting into the 4Runner scene “form over function” it’s been proven Soo many times over and over again 255 skinnier tires fit without mods and actually skinnier tires work better in every aspect, more traction longer footprint especially lowered psi and actual better rolling resistance better mpg, people just be in ball rubbing bros to get the wider tires
Not sure what the big deal with this topic is. I ran a Toytec Aluma Series 2.5” lift, SPC upper control arms, Method 305’s with zero offset and 285/70-17 Goodyear DuraTrac’s with no rubbing, no cutting, no alignment issues. I chose this route because my local dealer at the time, Larry Miller Toyota in Colorado Springs, installs the exact same setup with zero issues.
@@FourT6and22more of the fact that you can run 33s in a more offroad application. Where you would be flexing all the way out and have your tire cranked. Sure you can do this same setup with no trimming or cutting long as you stay on the road n occasional speedbump. Just my .02¢
@@strapped_6159 I know and I agree. I was responding to the fact that the above user stated no rubbing with his setup. But he's running zero offset wheels, so of course "no rubbing" on the street. But yes, it will rub with articulation for sure. I installed 285/70/17 with -10 offset and it rubbed even on the street. Required a minor finder liner cut (no big deal) and a body mount chop. Now it doesn't rub, even with full articulation.
Damn that's a lot of cutting for some slightly larger than stock tires lol! I'm running 285s on -10 wheels at 2.5" of lift and all I did was remove the mud flaps and shave the front bumper!
I'm running -10 wheels with 285/17, 2" lift and needed a body mount chop, remove mud flaps, and cut front bumper/liner a bit. You won't rub the body mount if all you do is drive on the road/highway. But as soon as you get even a tiny bit of articulation, you will rub it.
I got wildpeak AT3W 285/70/17 on my 20 4runner and all I did was remove the mud flaps and shave a little bit of the front wheel well and they don't rub. Do you recommend to do the chop as well?
To me it looks like you didn't need to chop the body mount? Maybe do a viper cut at the bumper but I believe 0 offset should be the answer to running a 285?
100%. While they are considered one of the best AT tires in the snow, tests have shown they stop roughly 30% longer than a snow tire in snowy conditions.

Im interested in that set up, would like to see some pictures.
Smart man. I’m sticking with my off-road with a +12 offset so I can do the same. Negative offset wheels also make trucks ride like crap.
I just upgraded my 2012 FJ TTSE from BF Goodrich 31” KO2s to 33” Falken Wildpeak AT3Ws and love the feel and grip! Great decision so far!

Same.
Yall actually offroad or overland tho? Or just mall crawling?
@@strapped_6159
I live in the desert. No frame chopping necessary unless I go out of my way to find new ways to abuse my 4Runner.

I think the deal is... a lot of people want to run lower offset wheels that look better. Like -10, -12, -17, -20, -38, etc.

Just installed 255/80 R17’s Toyo AT3’s on my Trd Pro. Fit perfectly… didn’t have to change a thing and they’re a true 33. Zero rub with factory setup.
Yeah but they’re hideous
YEP THEY WORK AND EASY
@@Bananahammock88That’s subjective. Objectively they are more functional than wider tires. Less weight, less rolling resistance, longer footprint.
Damn that's a lot of cutting for some slightly larger than stock tires lol! I'm running 285s on -10 wheels at 2.5" of lift and all I did was remove the mud flaps and shave the front bumper!
Amen, if I did all that cutting I’m going bigger than 285s for sure.
What tire??

I’m running Baja Boss’s in 285’s. All I did was remove the mudflaps. Stock snowflake rims too. No rub. I have 6112’s set at 2.25 inch lift.
You will if you rock crawl
@@Bananahammock88 don’t plan to rock crawl. I live in the desert so a lot of sugar sand, washboard roads and mud.
But I want to keep my spacers
@@1rstTry I slapped some 1.25 spidertrax and I’m rubbing. Definitely going to get dirt king UCA’s & BMC done
Will 275 fit on stock suspension (w/ front leveled of course) ?
Can you fit 33s on a stock 5th gen SR5 with just a 2” leveling kit?

Only chop if youre rubbing or plan on going bigger in the future. No point in wasting money.
Do you have a lift?
@@cassiewinfrey738 Yeah I forgot to mention I have the Westcott Preload Collar Lift Kit installed

how much would this cost for my 21 4runner limited?
Dont call the Falkens "snow tires". They do amazing in the snow for an ALL TERRAIN, but are not dedicated snow tires.

Got it, just stick with stock tire size 😅
Running 305-70-16's...no cutting.
