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).
Those spacers should be fine but yes, a set of more negative offset wheels would be better.
I agree on that..
@@omegabulldog5001 not really, because they will put more pressure on the wheel bearings and alter the steering
Pretty much what I just said before I read your comment. Apart from that, the United States have no experience with landcruisers.
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.
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.
yes, totally agreed and with spacer would make the unbalance while in high speed
Thank you so much for taking the time. I appreciate your valuable insight :)
@@classicscustomsandhotrodso600 Spacers will increase pressure on the bearings but rims with equivalent offset won't? I don't see it but hopefully you can explain that.
Spot on 👍
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 :)
Agreed. I'm very surprised to know at the end of the video that there is offset issue. I thought RedSpring should have know better if the wheel width and tire wideness will clear.
Not sure if Spacer will cause more headache in future but us trackie, it is a no no
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.
Thanks for your insight. Yes, I have gotten both the front bearings changed and serviced :)
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
Thank you so much for your input and insight :)
Never use spacers, just get a set of wheels with more negative offset. The shop should have advised accordingly.
Yes, negative offset wheels would be ideal. It's just that my current circumstances require abit of flexibility in terms of the choices. Thanks for your insight!
@@JunOutdoors do consider your safety on the road as well ya those things are potential hazards
Another great video and really enjoy your content. The new shoes look fantastic but I need to mention spacers can be dangerous especially on a 4WD. If Redsprings did the right thing they would have ensured you had the correct negative rim offset which would eliminate the need and extra cost for wheel spacers.
Hi sir, thank you so much for your valuable insight. I really appreciate it :)
@@JunOutdoors Thank you for your reply. Can’t wait to see your next instalment. Also liked the trip you did to Penang. Spent some time there at Butterworth with the Australian Army.
After having added the 38mm thick spacers, please insist for another wheel alignment check. Keep a copy of the printout for future reference ( in case,your tyres suffer any abnormal/premature wear due to the 4 spacers. Pls note.
Thank you very much. Noted!
Hey Jun hope all is well and that you're enjoying your summer. Those wheels and rims are beautiful but at first it looked kind of off, however when you added the spacers OMG night and day difference. It looks soooooo much better with the spacers. Good job young lady 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
Thank you :)
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… 😅
Exactly, it make the the LC2 good looking more than useful nimble 4x4, nothing is perfect, it depends on the user choice
Hi sir, thank you so much for taking the time to share your valuable insight. I really appreciate your genuine concerns and point of view :)
For overlanding you dont need that makes car looks cool. Bigger tyres give you trouble during water crossing. Stiff spring is necessary to carry more load. Siffer spring need good damper.
nampak premium jun. smart la kena dgn karaktor awk .berpeluh peluh gak jun buka tayar ni haha., terbaik la jun..
Thank you :)
more offsett your wheel geometry and it will wear your stock standard bearings and bushes.. always standby 2 sets of wheels if you prefer better looks vs daily usage looks
Looks great with the new shoes. Negative offset rims would have been better though.
Agree
Thanks for your input! :)
good to see THE LANDRUISER AGAIN 👍and it's getting new SHOES , THOSE ARE COOL.
Thank you :)
The Landcruiser looks great!
Thanks :)
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.
Thank you so much for your valuable insight and point of view. I really appreciate it :)
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
Hi sir, thank you for sharing. I have gotten both front wheel bearings changed. Oil seals were changed too. My mechanic did a good, thorough greasing for me. He is a passionate land cruiser owner himself, and works with many Land Cruisers, so I believe I am in good hands.
Not sure about the square plug but thank you for this information. Will check and see if it's there.
Appreciate your sharing. Thanks and cheers :)
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's pretty normal for most MT and AT tires. That's probably due to the agressive tread patterns.
I agree on that..
Since getting my 80 series, I've had 4 sets of tyres fitted to it (all ATs), and I've never once had needed that much weight on a single wheel. I guess, I've been very lucky with the choice of AT tyres I've made.
That's a very keen observation you have. Thank you for your insight :)
What an amazing upgrade! Always love your video!
Thank you so much!
Wider tyres, positive offset rims, spacers, all accelerate tyre and bearing wear. Affect handling too.
Wheels that have a bigger diameter than stock, puts extra work on the engine and transmission. Gears have to be changed more often. you lose power easily going up inclines.
Bigger tyres, heavier rims and spacers change the unsprung weight ratio ( the ratio of the moving part vs the vehicle body weight). When this ratio increases the vehicle rides rougher,
Nothing beats stock rims and tyre size that is recommended by the vehicle manufacturer !

Thank you so much for your insight :)
nice upgrade!!!
Thanks!
cool...the rim come in 5 piece👍👍
Hi Jun, I like the rim model and the tires. I would prefer not to use spacers. You can opt for (negative) offset rims instead.
Thank you for your insights :)
That’s nice seeing you learning to change tyres, as for me it was the last thing I was taught by my dad before he could let me drive 😂
Well, I've got a steep learning curve!
you can retorque or basically retighten and regrease to proper specs the front wheel axle bearing if it get rough to spin the wheel then thats the time you need new bearings.. negative 20 ( - 20 ) offset is perfect for fender flared LC. your new wheels may be a 0 zero offset with no offset the widest should be 7 inch wide rims to 255 width tires modern cars and trucks nowadays seldom use negative off sets
Thank you so much for all the info! Really appreciate it :)
Your drive is beautiful as you. Keep it up and embrace the journey
Thanks :)
Congrats Jun 👏, nice upgrade
Thanks :)
Perghhh! Nampak padu n mantapp dah si Gayah (bukan nama sebenar 🤭) dengan kasut baru 👍
Another great video. A learning experience for sure. Best, looking forward for more to come!
Thank you!
That is bit wide on spacer but with that large of the tires and without lifting, it is what it is.. Don't drive too fast and keep it safe.
Thanks for the tips!
When you are on a set big wheels, it is also good to invest on spare wheel carriers as huge wheels on the rear door will add stress to the door hinges in long term.
Yes this. That back wheel is too big for that door i think. Best off with a hitch swing gate
@@tomcolls9264 Yes, when I bought my GU recently, the first thing I do was to install a rear bullbar equipped with a wheel carrier and jerry cans holder. After the spare wheel was relocated, there is no more rattling sound from the rear door.
Yes, I totally agree! I do plan to invest on a spare tire carrier soon, along with jerry can carrier.
Bradley Vs will look really nice on your truck
Definitely looks super rugged now!!!
I think that wheel look awesome..just that it will look better on a stock looking rig.. in your case..your LC have all the bars that are suitable for wider and bigger tires..even your suspension is a lil bit taller for this wheel size..for me..35 with 10jj wheels with -44 offset will make it look like a monster...hehe...just me...
Thank you so much for your point of view and valuable insight :)
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. After mounting the new wheels happily on the car, it is sad to see you need to compensate such huge wheel spacers to accommodate the huge difference in wheel offsets.
It's something that was overlooked. I'm sure they will improve after this! Thank you so much for your observation and valuable insight :)
@@JunOutdoors It's not totally your fault since they should be more professional on this. I will avoid that shop in the future. Our wheels set up is not cheap. Even if you were not technically knowledgeable on your rig, you shouldn't be the only one paying for this mistake.
im honestly says with these brand tire and wheels upgrading isn't cheap...i love these lc bcoz i've own one😊im using 16"wheels 10" wide -44 offset with toyo open country mt 315/75/16 tire daily drive my lj absolutely looks and feel amazing on/offroad no problem,if the ww3 did not happen my next planing swap hdj81 axle 😅😅
Your rig sounds amazing :)
Nice rim Good Tayer, for us here we prefer MT tayer. Sarawak is very extreme off-road.
Special support from Sarawak Borneo Island
Hi there, yes i believe in Sarawak, MT is the bare minimum! :)
Cantik,pandai Jun pilih rim & tyres.
Thank you :)
Looking good!
Thank you!
Proper upgrade,,,,
Big love from 254..
Thanks!
Wouldn't advice using wheel spaces, unless they are rated, billet steel. But I honestly much preferred the look of the previous Retro Styled Landcruiser rims you filled a few videos ago. Suited the 25+ year old Landcruiser much much better than these modern style Alloys 🙏 Owner of a 76 Series, 40 Series and 60 Series.
Hello sir, you're the owner of many great Land Cruisers! Thanks for your thoughts and insights :)
Steady la Jun 🎉
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? So much hassle to assemble all 4 wheels only to realise later on that ‘oh its scraping is it?’
Also a wider wheels would hv better patch contact on the road.
It's just something that was overlooked. All is well. Thank you so much for your concern :)
Great video Jun! Love a good overland build
Thanks Liam!
I’m using -44 offset for my LC2. Plus 35 inch tyres on 16 rim
Thanks for sharing! :)
Looks better but I'm not into wheel spacer.
cantik dan simple...😀🔥
Thank you :)
@@JunOutdoors wc 😀☺
Probably need to redo alignment once bearing changed. I think many have mentioned about spacers so I think you know what the consequences will be. All the best with your adventures
I also wondering why they noticed wheel bearing problem still able to do alignment
Thank you so much for your valuable insight. I appreciate it :)
Looks awesome!
Very very nice choice of colors, do you have a video on the re painting of your lc 70 Prado, it use to be black now is mocha, I am planning to buy a 76series, but I seen your lc, I think I am buying a 79series Prado, then recondition it just like yours right now I have a Fortuner for my solo camp
Thank you very much. I think whether it's a 76 or 78 or 79, they are all great and very capable.
Here's the video of the paint job of my LC th-cam.com/video/C26GOi3xpbE/w-d-xo.html
@@JunOutdoors thank you so much for the link, i will be watching it asap, happy trailing/camping ma'am Jun, more power to JunOutdoors , and by the way, i am sorry for the 79series, hehehe i mean i will be buying like your model which is the 70series. and we will have the same color, yeah, I will transfer my accessories from my fortuner to my lc, that is my plan, but am, that is still in my dream hahahaha!!! still, have to save some money for it, by the way I am a freelancer architect/designer/3d modeler and a construction worker here in the philippines. if you want to have a design of your dream house i could offer my help and services, thank you once again
That is a lot of balance weights for a new rim and tire.
Beautiful car Jun. Great work. Love it!
Thanks :)
This kind of car still very expensive even in the US because of its brand (Toyota Land Cruiser) Just take good care of it Jun!
These ATs good in the wet? Some ats are slippery when taking corners. Should hv gone for Falken wildpeaks.
Thanks for your suggestion, sir :)
aduhhhh.... koyak poket jun hahaha. Anyway... janji syiok. Terbaikkk Jun. Mantap!! & Padu!!
Great Job Jun!!
Thank you!
Video u memang best.😊😊😊
Thank you :)
that's more like it!
terbaik
I hope you used steel spacers and not aloy spacers. Steel is much safer and stronger.
Since already upgrade new rim why not just go direct to ET-44 . Add on spacer when No choices.
The shop doesn't have negative offset tires. But thank you so much for your insight, I really appreciate it :)
One day .. I buy one 4x4 ...
Try to change both bearing instead of 1 bearing..... Overall, luv ur new set of wheel
Thanks for sharing! Yes, I have gotten both bearings changed :)
looks nice!!
Thanks!
Power up wheels n tyres.❤❤❤
More spokes more difficult to wash unless u r not doing the washing
& Wrong choice of wheels n tyres = spacers needed!
What a beast 💯
Thanks :)
Your changed out black wheels for black wheels
How much roughly it cost for the wheels n tyres ?
About rm10k for 5 sets of wheels and tyres
❤❤❤❤❤
Enjoyed
Nxt should be a new headlight (LED) & tailight
I love your style
Thanks :)
They should of sold you wheels with an offset , those spacers aren’t the safest choice
Thanks for your insight :)
x cun sgt tu kak....kenapa x cari rim 15 over offset pakai tayar mt33...body dh besar rim ke dalam...sygnye la
DID YOU HAVE ALSO A NOSELIFT(MEANING YOUR NOSE) ?
Nope
best if you can get offset -44 :)
Thanks for your input!
A decent wheel shop would not have sold you those rims without working out the required offset to clear your struts correctly... That's poor. Looks great though!
Thanks for your insight! :)
70 kinda too thick if u not gonna do offroad, 65 probly better (bigger making more noise), but if u using 275, mayb would have solve ur spacer needed problem (i'm using 285/60/r18 which shorter then urs in total, but 60 need to avoid rough driving to avoid hitting my cosmic rim.....which i did hit once😢 ). i'm using TOYO AT japan imported only RM680 each, which cost lot cheaper then this brand and BF. adding spacer and without wider ur fender and wider mud guard, u will face tones of dirt that splashed up from ur front and rear tyres, over ur side door, side window, even the inner part of ur door handle. 1 lastthing, when u doing alignment, thre's a very little space that they can adjust ur front wheel forward or backward, which u need to remind them, for my case, i need to find the same worker to do the alignment for me, he knows my problem, i need exactly the wheel position on balance to avoid scrubbing the "banana skin".
Hi sir, thank you so much for your detailed input and valuable insights. Really appreciate it. It's an expensive lifestyle, isn't it :)
@@JunOutdoors yea, if u can find a very generous sifu, which doing these kind of upgrade, he will feed all ur concerns.....but i find it kinda hard. probly u need to learn fr few 4x4 users to provide feedback. unless u r very lenglui, gathering with 4x4 kakis, then 1 of them PROMISE u, he can do all the stuff for u with most reasonable price & solve all ur problem without double charge.....well, i wouldnt believe what i just said....as i said, unless u r very lenglui 🤣🤣 just kidding. some times u just need to learn from errors.
yea, it's an expensive lifestyle, unless u r determine to do it, do alots lots lots of homework & visit many 4x4er before u evem start to doing it, otherwise....🤣
Always here to support...
Regret to say, that's not the best rim you've choosen.
The shop should've more expertise to advise customers, it's like they don't even inspect your vehicle and recommend you accordingly.
Well what to recommend without the skills and knowledge it seems.
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.
Hello sir, thank you so much for your valuable insight. I really appreciate your concerns and sharing of knowledge :)
@@JunOutdoors it's a learning process, sometimes it can break your bank too in the process🤭😀... Have fun with it, there's more to explore and more nature to savour.
Stay safe
u choose a wrong wheels. U just doing workaround. Try do it right at the first time. The guy sell u the wheel should advise u… macam this shop need to increase their expertise n attentive to customer problem n request.
I am about to say the same thing .. they should know better right? Asal jual jer..adei... Steelies lagi baik la rasa nyer..
Thank you so much for your input yea. I really appreciate it! I'm sure the shop will always try to improve their services.
Hai heloww salam kenal dri Indonesia n salam satu hoby ❤🎉
Hello & salam kenal :)
No center ring install?
If you mean the hub centric ring, nope
What the "damage" for all these, Jun?
I'm working with Redsprings so I'm not suffering the damage. But the retail price would amount to more or less rm8-10k.
Just realise she driving old prado not 70 series model they are rare here in Australia worth like $35000
This is also a type of 70 series a.k.a. LJ79 a.k.a. Prado
@@JunOutdoors yeah half 70 series bodies
Jun
Once your hands touch the tools gear dont touch you face 😂
Got grease mark on your face
Haha. No grease mark, no fun!
If you are tired of your old vehicle and the problems, please sell it to me ☺
What is that on your left wrist ? Many muslim have that on .. wonder if that is something bomoh thing ?
Not bomoh. It's just gem stones :)
Jun .. jangan kacau orang tukar tayar 😅😅
Sekali sekala la....
I'm sure everyone here agrees that the wheels they sold you is definitely NOT the correct fitment. If you don't already know, I can say that when you dig deeper and research it further, you'll will see that they did you wrong and then found a quick fix. Installing wheel spacers is not the answer especially if you are buying brand new wheels and tyres. Also, there's a reason why they're illegal in some countries. 😢😢😢 I hope you get it sorted out sooner than later.
Hello sir, really appreciate your thoughts, concerns and insight. Thanks :)
Instead of praising that shop, you should be upset they sold you a setup that doesn’t fit. Then they got you to spend even more money with them to fix it.
Hi sir, thank you for your concerns, I really appreciate it. All is well :)
You need a pair of new tail lights 😂
Yes, I agree!
As far as possible, AVOID fitting any spacer, irrespective of their thickness, just to accomodate the rims to the axles, correctly. Aesthetic Must Never Over shadow the Importance of a Correct Fit!
Thank you so much for your valuable input, sir.
Please don’t use spacers…
Do you live in Shah alam?
Nope!
By now, from the comments from your viewers, please note that WE are very concerned about your New set of Rims that Does NOT have the correct offset! Rubbing salt on to the wound, you had to pay for a set of massively THICK 38mm spacers,just to keep the tyres from Rubbing against the body! Two wrong actions,do NOT make ONE right! Please for your own safety and the Land Cruiser's durability, go back to Red Leaf and get a Correct set of rims. Seriously, we are worried over you.
Hi sir, thank you so much for your valuable insight, I really appreciate it :)
Ini kedai tipu la... Should rekemen you negative offset wheel.. Or at least advise la and explain to customer...no need to use spacer... Haha i thought very good shop coz many wheel from US, but nope..
Thank you for your valuable insight, sir. The shop doesn't have negative offset wheels. All is well now. Thank you for your concern :)
hazard at road!
Bad choice for the new set of wheels !
Thanks for your opinion :)
Hello Jun. Very good info on LC 70 series. I am interested to acquire one (used LC). Could you please share with me Mr Leeson contact no. Tq
Hi, glad to hear you're interested to get an LC 70. You may email me at junoutdoors@gmail.com and I'll share with you his contact :)
