33.5" with a 2" lift would give full flex and actual off road capable
Man the first time I saw the stock rims on the LC, I thought they were way too basic. But now that I see all these pics and vids with custom rims, the more the stock rims grow on me and seem like they just fit the classy look of the LC more. The most I’d do is keep the stock rims and swap for slightly beefier 33’s but that’s about it.
I’m getting same color, I just can’t decide on wheels, sometimes I hate the stock ones then other times I’m like they are not that bad!
Your wife " I don't hate it" cracked me up.
Lol hahahahha baby steps
You bought this car to save on MPG and now you're putting 35 tires on it🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
lol to get better mpg than my other vehicles hahaha. It still will haha
Nope, I think 34s
Just removing those front clip pieces probably compromised 1mpg. Car makers put those ugly things on for a reason.
That was LITERALLY my first thought! LOL
just let the artist cook - im not here to see how many mpgs he can get.
Thought ur wife needed a good mpg suv. 😂
😂😂🤷
I thought he said the same thing 😂
Go down a size. Rather then cutting and parting out.
Yep. Will still be better than the 16 mpg the other vehicles get.
@@TRDJonnot really, especially when you factor in premium fuel, it'll probably pencil out very similarly. Then add in all the taxes and fees you paid for a new vehicle, in addition to the instant depreciation once you drove it off the lot, and you're paying more than just keeping the 16mpg vehicle.
Looks really good. Fits the LC's retro style. Just need a smaller size tire. Those are way too big. Lifting it will hurt MPG. She drives a lot using premium gas so a "shorter" tire will help fuel econ as well.
The black wheels look better, thanks for sharing Sir.
Always!
General rule of thumb: Adding unsprung weight creates 10lbs effect for every one pound added. ( +10lbs/tire x 4 = 40 (multiply x10 for unsprung weight) = same effect on power and fuel economy as driving around with 400 pounds dead weight in the vehicle. )
Dang that’s a lot!
I like the silver mags! Nice throwback look. Those tires aired down are gonna rub like crazy!
I think so too!
Oh those bronze wheels were the absolute jam brother. 👌👌
I'm really surprised that no one has commented that a lift doesn't create clearance. Sure at static height there will be plenty of room but as the suspension compresses that clearance goes away and the tires will rub. Perfect example is turning onto a cut out in a parking lot or driveway.
Very true. But with 98% being normal height driving it would help out a bit.
Wheels look pretty good. Way too much tire poke for my tastes, however. Different offset and going to a 285 wide, rather than these 295, would look perfect.
285/75R18 (34.8") would likely be a bit too tall, even though they are a bit narrower, so maybe the 285 with a 70% sidewall.
295/70R18 (34.3") vs 285/70R18 (33.7") is only 0.6" difference in height. And the slightly shorter and narrower tire, than the one in this vid, will be less headaches, but still have the oversized look and benefits, such as more sidewall and better rollover. This video convinced me that 285/70R18, with wheel offset the same as, or close to, stock, will be the go-to tire for the new Land Cruiser.
those shiny wheels look bigger than the LC (almost makes it looks like a Monster truck), the black ones (17in) with offroad tires are perfect!
Been running those tires for a year and a half now, 275 55 20 on my 2017 toyota 4runner limited, road tripped in them and you would love them if your looking for a daily driver tire you definitely made the right choice, your wife would definitely appreciate them as well, and also the wheels look fire on the land cruiser, they really pop on with that color, it's not the same old boring black and the same look being done over and over again. Hope she enjoys. Oh and those wheels on there definitely gives it the 2024 80 series landcruiser vibe as well.
Black wheels are a "no go" for good looks, machined is definitely the best look. IMO.
Offset calculations are pretty straight forward. No reason to be surprised that these poke (making you one of those that breaks other people's windshields) and that they don't fit. Those 34" (34.29" is 34 not 35) unsprung mass are going to do wonders on the aluminum knuckles...The silver wheels do look good on the Prado in that colour.
I like em. Like how they kind of match the top too.
For sure. Thats what I was thinking too
@@TRDJon definitely better than the stock wheels
🎉👍💖👍🎉The NEW 4RUNNER TRAILHUNTER WHEELS for the LAND CRUISER.
Gotta be a better 17” wheel tire combo that doesn’t rub
I think he needs to go down to 34" tires and do a 1" to 2" lift.
285/75r18 probably wouldnt rub, theyre a bit taller, closer to 35, but theyre about half an inch narrower
Rims are like shoes... another way to express our own personal style. If you like it, then rock it! Personally, i think it looks great. Dare to be different. =)
I like those rims and tire combo, don't need any lift, just push the plastic away from the tire
Bro the stock rims are better, if you want big tire just change the tire to one inch bigger, don't go big too much the handling wont be good and it will drink more fuel, 32 is good but if you want more rubber 33 will be fine, true that colour suits the car more goes with the roof
After this video, I’m convinced my wife will love the new Land Cruiser 😊😂
I love that you immediately start modifying it 😂
Had to see how they would look!
This is gonna tank the range since the new Land Cruiser (Prado) came with a much smaller 17.9 gal fuel tank than previous platforms. Kinda wish they kept at least a 23 gal tank from the GX470/GX460. The J250 is slightly longer and wider vehicle but saddled with a smaller fuel tank? The hybrid system in the J250 Land Cruiser (Prado) is set up to help with power in conjunction with the small turbo four engine, not fuel economy. My 3rd gen 4Runner also have a small 18 gal tank. My range tanked once I put on bigger off-road tires and a supercharger. I feel like your overlanding trips are gonna include a couple of extra jerry cans.
Wow, I’m usually not indecisive about wheel finish because black is the best, BUUUTTT, that white/blue works with the aluminum finish and I’m not sure I wouldn’t want white steelies on it. 😱
In your garage I thought, why!?! But, dude, out in the sun those bad boys are SICK.
Sun allows it to POP for sure.
I went with 18" Tundra TRD PRO BBS wheels with stock Falcons, 285/65/18's for my white 1958. They look beautiful and no rubbing.
Thanks for your video. I feel that I made the right choice.
Thats what I am looking to do on this too.
Great vid. Wheels look great. I would have gone with 285/70 but they may still rub. I never understood why Toyota is so stingy on wheelwell space. Would it be so detrimental to the structural integrity of the car frame to afford each wheelwell 1" more space?? BTW, love seeing what the rig looks like without those silly front canards.
Thanks! I appreciate it!
Hi! You can try on the bronze wheels and fix the video. Thank you very much 🙏🙏🙏
Looks cool! I would suggest using the same tire size as J80, with the same rim look. J80 size is 275/70/R18 and fits without any mods and does not affect odometer
Will look at that one!
Machine polished definately.
Curious to see how the fuel economy changes with the new tires.
I’d still go with 17s. The one you tested on there looks smaller because it’s black. 17 would work in silver and you could fix the rubbing issue
These tires look much better! I walked into a first edition the other day and I genuinely thought it was the 1958 because of those lame stock tires. Man even the FJ trail team edition got some BFG KOs
And the FJ TT had wayyyyyy better looking TRD Wheels too from what I remember. The wheel and tire choice in this was meh. The GX definitely got a thoughtful tire for the Overtrail
I think those wheels in black would look good.
Jon they look fantastic I,m gonna do the exact same slightly smaller tyres so no lift needed I,m still waiting for my FE order to be confirmed here in the UK
any update on MPG with the new wheel & tire package?
Looks great mate. Almost makes it even more retro look. Bad ass for sure.
Looks great with the machined wheel vs the black one. Your wife's gonna be riding in style
For sure dude!
Protection ring on those might look good and a slightly smaller tire
Wow, the Land Cruiser looks so damn good with new shoes! I wouldn’t even care about mpg loss lol
Thanks for your sharing. After watching your excellent video. I would lower the density in the wheel arches with the help of 285.70.18 tires. And you get a gift of about half an inch extra for belly height.
Great tip!
That is sick.
Don't lift it, keeping as much stock as posible, just heat and mold the plastic bumper away from the tire or as last resort cut them some so they don't rub
That Cruiser looks good with those tires! I excited to see how it would look with the Tundra TRD pro wheels.
You and me both!
Polished on LC looks amazing! Really fits the style.
It really does man!
Good choice of wheels. Looks great !
Machined wheels for sure…black can be cool but its so good the way it is. 1.5in lift to get rid of the rubbing and it’s perfect
machine finish anytime any day all the way!
2" lift in front tires, and superb built.
Foooooor sure
Having driven both the Land Cruiser and the Tundra, which one do you enjoy more Tundra vs Land Cruiser vs 4 runner? I have a ‘23 Tundra and I’m thinking about changing over to the LC or 4rnr.
The LC is probably the best to drive honestly. But for me the Tundra is more fuctional for what I do and need though
I have a wrangler and I don't like poke. I kept with 25m offset on 35s to keep them inside. These ones, they honestly look too big. I like the size of the smaller 17. I like the polished look though. And I do wonder if it were just lifted maybe 2", not as much as you had on the jack if that would help. But I personally would see if I could get a diff offset. The polished and paint color look great to me.
black matte wheels +25 offset with 2 inch max lift so you don't rub the bellows on the CV boots.
So it looks awesome with a great retro vibe. I would add a thin white pin stripe on the body line that crosses from the fender to the quarter pannel.
Cool idea!
The machined silver definitely looks great with the heritage blue. If I had a heritage blue LC250, I would go vintage and go white wheel 😉.
Stock wheels with the new tires would look the best. Or you should try your 4Runner wheels
* ... dude! Holly smoke! "
😂😅😱😁
Looks great! That silver definitely looks better than the stock. Though you'd have had a better fit (slightly) with 34" KO2s. 34x10.5 on 17s, with about the same diameter. That 10.5 width is where you'd get the advantage. They're D load. Got them on my wrangler, quiet and comfy. Just rub off the dust from the sway bars at full lock, no lift. Theyre expensive though!
Yea definitely don’t need that heavy of a tire but that’s an awesome size!
The new Land Cruiser looks REALLY good with bigger tires (and those silver wheels look great too) but it looks like you'd definitely need a lift... The second that suspension flexes while turning that rubbing is going to get real bad...
Wheels make all the difference. Out of all your Toyotas I like the Land Cruiser the best. 👍
Yea!? I appreciate it!
Not crazy about the polished wheel and wide tire look. Tall and skinny is my preference. Battle ship gray steelies like the old 40’s.
Thanks for the video! I’m surprised the +12 mm didn’t poke at all (or barely). I might go with 0 on mine. What do you think about the 12mm offset with the 295 tire width?
It pokes a little bit too much for me without a lift, I feel its too much with no lift but may look better with one. imo
Has to be wheels with some machine silver in the finish, so machine silver highlights with matt black inlays.
Major hotness. Leave 'em!
I think the Trd Pro wheels would Pop but the sliver RRW's add to the "old school/ New school" vibe of the LC. And the silver pops with the gray roof!
Agreed bro!
I wonder if the frame mount rock slider points are the same between the 5th Gen 4runner and the land cruiser...
They are not the same
new wheels look great!
Glad you like them!
4:34 Wifey saw her chance to have a Cybertruck moment with your fingers!
I’m not really a fan of the polished wheels but you are right with the roof color, even though I personally don’t like polished wheels these wheels look good on the cruiser because of the color combo with the roof
The recon grappler in 295x70r 18 are 63 lbs a tire, the k02 34x10.5 r 17 are 56 lbs per tire (per tire rack). The lighter weight, and the 10.5 for the better fit... just sayin'
I love the look of the polished rims. It looks sick. I hate black on black look. Almost always looks awful. Those rims match the L.C. perfect 👌
It looks so good 💯 and more aggressive
I agree the 18’s look better. The machine alloy wheel does give it visual pop but the design to me is not appealing. All those spokes remind me of sedans from 90’s and it’ll be more work to clean. Maybe a six spoke or 6 hole look?
For sure! I can see that
I dig the polished look with the blue/greyscape. Waiting on my LC (Meteor Shower) and picked up some of those TRD Pro wheels myself. Should be a good look, I hope!
Good choice!
Hmmm. Torn between LC or 4 runner
Doesn't changing to a larger tire change your speeodometer were it is not correct?
Yes it will be off a little
The MPG is better, but the COST per mile is the key. Premium fuel costs about 60 cents more per gallon, which is close to the same as a 3 MPG loss as compared to regular gas. In other words. 23 MPG with premium fuel at $3.60 per gallon, is close to the same as 20 MPG with Regular fuel at $3.00.
These are rough estimates. There are websites where you can calculate cost per mile. MPG is important, but cost per mile is improtanter. :D
We will test it with reg gas too
These wheels match the retro modern look of the LC
Looks great!
Love those man!
These look great! No black this time
Thanks!
I keep seeing FJ Cruiser with those wheels at certain angles for some reason. Which is a good thing I think.
33’s would look better imo. Love the content.
Thnaks man!
The 17-inch wheel is better for off-road because it has more sidewall to provide cushion and more contact patch when you air down, not because you have more tires to choose from. The 18s do look sick on the LC!
True as well! Thanks for that additional information!
Factory looks 10 times better in my opinion
It looks great! Like the accent of the wheels!
Thanks!
Did you check the center bore of your wheels ?? ... should be 95.1mm
What is the stock wheel offset?
Jon great video, beautiful LC, I like both combo's, smaller AT tires with those be perfect, personally have two sets for my old 2012FJ, use more aggressive set when doing any serious off roading. Have had a couple LC 80&100 miss both. like the 250 a lot! Look forward to additional coverage of it.
Thanks man!
What is the mpg after adding the large tires? Just out of curiosity
I havent done a long trip yet to really see a difference.
retro vibes. very nice
Glad you like it!
Totally transforms that LC! Well done brother 🤌🤙
Thanks 👍
Looks good man. Polished wheels are the way to go
I think so too!
that setup looks dope on it
Thanks dude!
Is the rr7 and rs7 just different material? Same beadlock concept?
Correct. The S is monoforged
I want that truck. Can't afford the 1st edition but I want the round head lights and power seats. Try to build a 1958 but it wouldn't give me options to add power seats and bigger screen and heated seats
I think the larger tires and wheels make it look more Bronco-ish for some reason. Much prefer a more understated off road look that the LC is famous for.
Looks awesome with the machined wheels!…machine is the new look anyways
