@@OXFOOT just bought 285/75/17 ko2s to mount on some Methods with -12 offset for my 4runner. I have a CBI baja bumper and 2.5 inch lift. Do you think they will fight? how much cutting will I have to do?
Lots of good info in this video! I have a 2014 FJ, black rhino -38 wheels, 35x12.5 M/T, total chaos upper.., I’ve done lots of cutting! Well worth it tho!💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻
It’s the ratio of side wall so it’ll be somewhere around and inch taller but I think not much wider or maybe it’s the same exact width. Taller skinnier tires for the 75.
SPCs have been great. I did have to replace them once because I forgot to grease them for like 9 months and they were grinding and broke. I would recommend them but I’d also see if you can get a BMC if you haven’t and take a heat gun. What size are you running?
Love the build, one question tho, is the top bolt on your rock slider by the body mount chop at minute 10:10 of the video falling out, it looks like the bolt is barely threaded into the frame?
Yeah wow I never saw that until now. I’ll have to get under the 4Runner and see what’s going on there. Might be an optical illusion from the angle but thanks I’ll look into that!
I would still recommend doing about what I’ve done, but ultimately I would say do the BMC, and then take it around the block and see where it rubs then cut that or adjust the caster/camber. It was a trial and error thing for mine, but you may find that you don’t need as much on yours.
@@PocketMangathanks for the reply. So now that my -38s are on, I love the look but it did require the typical BMC plus a small amount of fender trimming, rocker cap trimming and I had to fold the panel behind the rocker caps flat. Took 20 minutes to do (aside from the BMC) so not terrible. Now zero rub even at full articulation.
@@Treetopflyer777 BMC is little involved. I did not realize that body mount actually prevents wheels coming up and injuring you in a head on collision. I am sure we all weigh in risk as we do these mods. But I had no idea that is what it did.
@@OXFOOT i beat the absolute hell out of it 😂. I have vids of me bunny hopping on this tree root in 4 low, and it bouncing off rev limiter in 3rd smoking 3 outta 4 tires on the tree roots and rocks haha. I have plans to take it to windrock soon and reallyyy put it to the test. I do have minor rub issues occasionally. I just thought though, im still on stock wheels with just spacers, so thats probably the difference!
@@OXFOOT both of my mirrors are broken off at the moment, the last trail i was on was barely wide enough for a rzr. My paint is absolutely destroyed thanks to that trail lol.
Let me know if you have any questions about anything I talked about.
After my 285/70r17 wears out, i’ll be stepping up to 285/75r17!
285/75/17 is so much easier to fit than the 305/17/17s.
@@OXFOOT that’s what i’ve been hearing! And thanks for the video! Very helpful tips!!

Thanks for the info. im so aggravated with the planning of my T4R I might just run a FabTech 6" and be done with it.
Great video man. I can't wait to see what your new suspension turns out to look like.
Yeah I’m excited also. I’ve been riding around on this hobbled together suspension for way too long.
Very cool video and spot on explanation.
Thanks, I appreciate it!
Well done!
Thanks!
What lift are you running front and rear?
What is the difference between 285/70/17 and 285/75/17 ?
It’s the ratio of side wall so it’ll be somewhere around and inch taller but I think not much wider or maybe it’s the same exact width. Taller skinnier tires for the 75.
My wheels are rubbing in the back. How have the spc held up? How long have you had them.
SPCs have been great. I did have to replace them once because I forgot to grease them for like 9 months and they were grinding and broke. I would recommend them but I’d also see if you can get a BMC if you haven’t and take a heat gun. What size are you running?
*take a heat gun to the plastic in the rear*

very informative
Someone get this dude an IPA and a beard comb
Huh? Not even accurate. Would make sense if I was a city boy in tight pants but lmao.
@@OXFOOT haha
this is helpful! I'm going to move to 295/70/17 with -30 offset. Did you regear?
Yeah 295 is probably the way to go. Decent poke and size without doing all the cutting. Still some cutting but not nearly that much.
I haven’t regeared and I probably won’t. Anything bigger and I would.
@@OXFOOT I sized a wheel yesterday and it looked pretty good! Thanks for your info!
Do you think a -12 off set 17x8.5 rim would be able to clear that SPC upper control arm with 35’s?
Did you figure this out? I want -12 offset method 703's with 35's running total chaos uppers
I run zero offset wheels. Would this be the same amount of cutting with my wheels and 305/70/17?

I’m planning 285/70/17s and I just ordered the SCS Ray10s with -38.
Is it more complicated with the -38s and 285s?
I’m wondering if I made a mistake?
I have 0 offset on my wheel with 285/70/17 and very minimal rub only on reverse full turn. I think flush 0 offset is great as less debris will fly up.

@@PocketManga ya the BMC is involved. And agree we weigh the risks. It was one that I ultimately decided to accept.
I was able to keep the black cap with stock control arms with 34s. I wonder what the difference is.
Do you wheel it or is it more for looks and occasional dirt roads? My black caps came off with 285/70/17s and a -38 offset.

Thanks!
Wheels like this if it scratch or scrap its ok...wheels that cost 5k mighta stay home and look at them on your car
Very true. These aren’t too expensive. My old wheels were totally scratched up and I’m sure these will be some day as well.
Or just do the washer fluid resi relocate for $200
I don’t rub on the washer
I would rather just do pizza cutters and not have to do near as much trimming
Different strokes different folks, I totally get it.
Damn, bruh...
Huh?
man.. you talk sooo much😅 you could fit the same amount of info in 5-10min
Maybe, maybe not
