    Hi Chow. Two questions. I don’t recall you commenting on how your long term tire wear is going running those 315/75R16’s on the 16X8 rims. And did you feel the power loss from the larger tire/excess weight made you want to regear your differentials? I’m getting ready to order some 315/75R16’s MT’s but was having seconds thoughts due the above concerns. Love your vids bro. I just installed my 2" lift, UCA's, and Power Steering rack, etc. ready for the new shoes!

    Zero offset is the way to go on 100's and 200's IMO! Those are easy fixes, smash the pinch weld back, slap a little paint on it and that problem is fixed. On the drivers side you are proly hitting the washer fluid rez, need to relocate that! I run zero offset on my LX470 with 35x12.50 Treps and it works great, just got back from my second Rubicon run a couple months back! Sub'd and liked!

    Good afternoon dear friend, with respect to you and your work, I have a question which parts need to be replaced. And what should I add to raise the Land Cruiser 100 to a height of 37 inches with wheels? Thank you for the advice, sincerely Eugene.

  • @ronnieelliott7292
    @ronnieelliott7292 Před 2 lety

    Probably just just go with some methods 17 inch, but that would require you to buy new tires so all in all it still looks nice. I am thinking 17 inch with a -12 offset but there isn’t to many companies making them.

    Nice! I swapped my originals for a set of late model 20" OEM Tundra wheels. It opened up a huge world of available tires. Only 33" tires at the moment since I don't have a lift yet. Are you going to add mud flaps or flares?

    There's good reasons in Australia you can not legally put silly tires on trucks like this. It's sad when people do these types mods. I guess it's better than the low profile, big wheel w/mud tire combo? Maybe? Did you ever mention what tire size you used, and had before, and lift you have? It at least let's others know what not to do.

    $3,000 for that? You must do something with the hubs but a steel wheel would give you nearly the same performance for a fraction of the cost even after powder coating for the same color. Waste of $$.
