DIRTY SEVEN CLUB

Point them to this forum lol

 

Honestly I can't say I blame them because "they fit" but they don't "fit". Chances are they've had people complain about rubbing and the typical lift manufacturer doesn't recommend larger than 35" so they're playing it safe.

Now with your 125 pages worth of reading and knowledge you can determine your path based on examples of 37" with various levels of lift, wheels and modifications.

My last Tundra had 1.8" of lift in the front and no lift in the rear on Icon Billet UCAs and I "fit" 37" tires. But they fit after cutting and modification to fit. Regardless of the amount of lift when the suspension compresses the truck essentially doesn't have a lift, so if you plan to use your truck plan to accommodate for the tire size and run with wheels that will give you the best opportunity not to rub (ie: ~+25mm offset).

 

So many people miss this concept, it's insane. Major props for spreading the good word of true clearance

 

Thank you for the info. The shop did mention that they had lots of “comebacks” with people complaining about rubbing so they didn’t want to deal with it. Like you mentioned, the juice is not worth the squeeze for them installing 37s.
Yes I’ve read this thread multiple times and decided to go with +35 offset for better fitment.

Thanks y’all for the reassurance!

 

Go to Sibi Built

 

Go with long travel lol

 

Good choice!

I had originally wanted to go with the 39s, but backed off from that plan after hearing from people having drivetrain components breaking on them due to them being larger and heavier.

Interestingly enough, I found that the 39x12.5r17 tires at least cost more than the 39x13.5r17 on the many different brands across the board and decided to pull the trigger on 13.5s instead, saving a little over $200. I don't know if this is such the case with the 35s vs 37s? I guess demand and supply would dictate their prices?

Most recently, I finally had my Katzkin leather seats cover with heater installed, purchased them since last year never ever being able to find time. And with some new LED AlphaRex MK2 Nova and Baja fog lamps installed to match.

Next on my list would be the front suspension, getting this truck ready for Nevada where I would finally reside optimistically. California has gotten to expensive for me and the state's politics have become banana, it's enough for me.

I am in the North Cal if you ever need any assistance and you're more than welcome to give me a buzz? Everything done my on truck was done in house by the shop I own and run, except for the leather seat installed.

Next on my chopping block is that white 2020 TRD Pro you see next to my truck on my previous post, it's getting the same treatment. The owner of this truck has been contemplating on putting a Magnum TVS2650 supercharger too, he has some deep pockets. And down the list is a 2024 Platinum come the next few months.

 

Yes! Because everything bolts right up, yeah?

 

Need some help selecting UCAs.

Truck has a 6 or 7 inch Pro Comp lift on 20x10, -19 wheels. I'll be swapping the spacers for Rough Country Vertex coilovers. I was planning to do SPC UCAs but my installer has concerns due to recent quality issues.

What other UCA options should I be looking at? JBAs seem like the next obvious choice.

Once these are upgraded it's time for BMC and 37s!

 

I have a BDS 7” & though that particular lift worked fine with OEM UCA’s, I eventually swapped them out for BDS‘s UCA’s & they’ve been fine.

 

I'm going to go the JBA route based on feedback.

Next question: anyone running Mickey Thompson baja legend EXPs in 37"? 69 lbs per tire sounds too good to be true.

 

2019 1794 TRD 4x4
-Ironman foam cell pro 3.5” (heavy)
-Method - MR 701 18x9 +25mm
-Toyo Open Country R/T Trail- 37x12.5

BMC and bumper trim. After a proper alignment we have no rubbing around town and out for some medium off road driving.

 

just right

 

37s going on today.

 

Nice! But, it would be nicer if it was black. JMO buddy.

 

Just ordered DRT relocation and Icon Vector wheels. Now I have to decide what tires to run. What's the present tire guys are using? Pretty much a pavement warrior just like the look of aggressive tires. Minimum noise good in rain and snow. Yes lot to ask lol

 

You gotta do that water crossing

 

@SAGE63 Maybe if I had a snorkel...

 

I went with nitto ridge grapplers which I don't mind. I liked my mickey Thompson Baja boss a/t's more since they had more sipes since it was A/T and not hybrid. If I bought new tires today I'd go Toyo Open Country A/T III since I'm mostly highway now or falken wild peaks a/t4w (I had the a/t3w when they first came out and loved those) . It's a toss up lol everyone has a different opinion. i.e. some say Ridge Grapplers are great in snow and others say awful.

The DRT relocation kit is awesome, you'll be glad you got it.

 

So im leaning towards the MT Baja AT seems like nobody really has negative comments about them. I run Peaks at3 on my highlander and some reason they are pretty loud. Not sure if it's because of the wear on them or what, but they are amazing in the rain and snow.

 

Honestly really liked my Baja Boss A/T. I had a hard time balancing 2 out of 4 of them but MT made it easy to warranty them out (at 80% because I did put a few thousand miles on them). But the 2 new ones were perfect. No complaints about them. They are on the heavier side but they’re my favorite tire I’ve ever ran on all my vehicles. Great looking tire too. I just always switch it up because I like trying something different but if you told me I could only run 1 tire rest of my life on my truck, it would be the Baja Boss A/Ts. Got me through a huge blizzard driving home from Vermont to NJ at 2 am. Can’t go wrong with them.

 

Guess the baja it is.

 

Nice! No cutting to fit those?

 

So you're in Western Ore. ? I lived 6 miles east of Newport. Toledo was my home for about a year and a half. Loved Oregon.

 

Need a build thread or more pictures of this. Badass build!

 

I know the area well. Newport is my most visited port, by far.

 

Will they fit
