285/75/r18 on 17 Stock TRD PRO

Just ordered these and wanted to verify if anyone runs these on a stock TRD PRO before I throw them on. I am already aware that I will need to remove the mud flaps. I know a lot of people run 295/70/r18 and 285/70/r18 but not many with 285/75/r18.

Yeah, I looked through it but couldnt find an answer, I know one guy did it with his 19 but its a different suspension from the 17

 

I did it. I am leveled to the same height as the pro in the front and trimmed my skid plate to match the width of the TRD Pro skid. Removal of the little front flaps was all that was needed and I have zero issues rubbing lock to lock.

285/75/18 on stock rims (same as pro) No wheel spacers.




to me this photo just shows how much bigger the truck looks with a simple tire upgrade.


Hope this information helps.

 

Thank you, kind sir! This for sure helps! Gives me reassurance for my decision. Just didn't wanna throw these bad boys on just to find out that it won't work

 

No problem. I felt the same way and after much research on here I decided to pull the trigger... and I am very glad I did.

 

Yeah, this is the closest to having 35's so im super siked!

 

Also when you complete this... please for the love of everything... do not start a “my mpg’s are worse after my 35s” thread

 

Hahaha, well i didnt buy a yota for the MPG so I cant complain too much

 

my Yokohama’s are embossed on the sidewall with a height of 35”

Couldn’t resist.

 

This tire is perfext. Wheel spacers would make it beefier but here in 808 sometimes you will get bothered if your tires stick out so I just avoid all that non sense

 

You didnt do anything to your suspension?

 

Sorry 3/2

 

She fits! Thanks for all of the help guys!

 

No rubbing the UCA, or anywhere at full lock? Looks like you removed the front mud flap?

 

No rubbing lock to lock and yeah that sucker had to go

 

Thinking about going with the 285/75 on my pro as well these look great
Congrats

 

I’m running 285/75/18. Love it. Just got these the other day. Mud flaps removed and wheel well modification with a heat gun. No rub.

 

I keep reading about the heat gun mod, could you show a picture of it now?

 

not the greatest job but it works.

 

It looks like you got a good bit of clearance from that.

 

Truck looks great! I was waiting for someone to put Falken Wildpeaks on. I am thinking I will try the same size as you, 285/75r18. Still no rubbing or anything?

 

With the added weight (I got an aftermarket bumper with a winch and lights) it dropped it so it started rubbing the rear mud flap so I just took it off. If you aren’t running 300+ lbs you should be fine.

 

With stock offset you’ll probably rub the front sway bar lightly as well. Nothing of concern but you’ll lose some of the paint off it.
2.25” lift front and rear (listed height not measured) new springs were so firm I opted to remove the sway anyway. My Falken say 35” but barely measure 34 x

 

that's a great looking ride my man!

 

Ordered the same 285/75r18 Falken Wildpeak AT3W’s. Found them on Amazon for 278 and Discount Tire price matched it. What tire pressure are you running? Thanks for the info

 

40 psi in same tires (size and brand) here. A little lover if you want a smoother ride. A bit more for loads. I did the chalk test and think 38 is where they were “ideal” but I just run 40.

 

That’s 38 psi cold right?

 

Got my 285/75r18 Falken Wildpeaks today! Removed the front flaps but still have a little bit of rubbing in the front. I believe it’s due to that I am running the maximum caster and have Icon UCAs so all that pushes the wheel much farther forward in the wheel-well. I am going to use a heat gun and mold the plastic forward a bit. Looks like I only need to do so about 1/8” maybe. Thanks for all the info guys!

 

Looks awesome!
