285/75R18 wheels and tires fit without cmc

Hello all. I’m new here. I’ve been trying to find threads about fittment issues with 285/75R18 tires. I just wanted to start a thread about these tires. I have a 2015 Tundra with a 3/1 leveling kit. I have 18” wheels with a 25mm offset. I’m running Nitto Ridge Grapplers size 285/65R18. I wanted to let people know that this setup works well. I didn’t have to do a cmc. I just removed the front two flaps and had to do some minor trimming on the bumper plastic. The set up is sweet. I hope this helps anyone looking at this set up. I don’t know if it will work for any other generations, but in the 3rd gen tundras, it works awesome.

 

So are those 285/65 or 285/75?

Nice truck btw

 

Welcome from Ohio, looks good

 

I like those wheels. I was actually between those you got and the Vision Warriors I got. Only reason I went with the warriors is because I wasn't sold on those MB wheels photoshopped on my truck, and thought mine would look a little better with more chrome. Sweet setup!

 

I have Method Standards 18x9 +20 and Toyo 285/75/18, didn't have to do the CMC (BMC). I did cut the skidplate ears off, but I did that before I even owned the new tires so can't verify if it was necessary or not. No mud flaps of course, but they could potentially fit with some modification.

 

They’re 285/75’s. I forgot I had to bend my skid plate. But I also did that before I got my new tires.

 

Those look good!

 

Thanks

 

Which leveling kit did you use?

 

Looks deadly. Which rim is that?

 

I used the fat bob 3/1 leveling kit. It’s exactly the same as the rough country. I did this one to get tires for now, but I’m planning on doing the Bilstein coilovers

 

The rims are MB’s. I like them a lot. They have a bigger load rating than the fuels I was looking at. Plus way cheaper

 

Thought those looked familiar. Same as the ones I have. They look much better on yours with the lift and bigger tires!

 

Thanks Blueribbon15 and Tundradrenalin, those are both great looking trucks! Appreciate the detailed lift and tire&wheel info. I got way too much negative space around these stock 275/55R20's and "need" to upgrade for summer.

 

Any front pics? Thx

 

Thanks for the inspiration Blueribbon15, I pulled the trigger this past weekend! I went with the 285/75R18 Nitto Ridge Grapplers on 18X9 Fuel Cleaver D574 wheels with 20mm offset/5.75" backspacing. I only had to trim inner front bumper plastic, the tires rub the cab mount a little bit at full turn, as expected, since I only have a 2.4" spacer up front and not the full 3/1 lift. Not sure if I'm going to do the CMC or the 3/1 lift, but either way it would definitely clear the cab mount then. Also, you guys were right, I have almost 2" of clearance at full turn for the factory skid plate, so no trimming required there with this setup!

 

Those look sweet!!! I love the ridge grapplers on mine.

 

The pics look great. I also just purchased the 285/75/18 ridge grapplers and the 3 in 1 leveling kit from supreme suspensions. I have a 2014 tundra TRD and planning to keep my 18” TRD wheels. I think they have a 55 offset. I’m wondering if this setup will work? I’d prefer not to use wheel spacers. Thanks in advance.

 

I believe those wheels are +60 offset, and I believe you’ll need em. I do seem to remember a guy or two that’ve run stock wheels on 295/70’s and didn’t need em though, but I could be wrong.

 

I just put 285/75/18 duratrac on 2017 stock trd wheels. 2.5”/1” lift, no spacers, no CMC, a wee bit of frame rub at full lock. Stock skid plate had to go due to its width.

 

You have any pictures

 

Great info. Ya'll!! Looking into
DISCOVERER AT3 XLT
LT285 /75 R18 129S E1 stock ride height stock 18" TRD rims with 1.5" rim spacers. removed front and rear mud flap, bent skid plate "wings" up. Does anyone think it will fit?

 

I thought on 295/70/18 but after Checking 285/75/18 looks great, will be my setup on TRD OEM wheels.

nice setup!

 

Try to level it as least 3/1

 

i have a 3/2 level kit and got 18" rims with +18 offset. think i can run 285 75 18 with no bmc?

 

Just did a 3/1 with 285/75/18. im rubbing hella hard on bumper and cab.
sweating over here trying to figure this one out.

 

get a heat gun or torch
leather gloves
squirt bottle with water

turn tire all the way inwards to give you some clearance
remove lower small mud flaps if there are any.
heat up area that is rubbing and surrounding area. if using torch it happens very quickly. press firmly into the plastic to bend it away from the tire with fingers. hold it and squirt water to cool the plastic in place. its thermal plastic so it will hold its shape when it cools. repeat till it doesnt rub anymore

 

That’s my plan with the fender liner. Problem now is that I’m rubbing on the cab mount.
i researched the hell out of all my options and it didn’t work. Alignment is golden. Offset is +20. I should have no problems whatsoever.
Im gonna start searching to see if I can find someone in the Houston area to do the CMC.

 

what rod holders are those? price?
