I’m sure there are a bunch of posts but I’m finding mixed reviews on fitting 35s

    Hey guys and girls.
    So I have a 2021 platinum but had the TRD pro shocks installed from Toyota. Runs great. Love the bells and whistles from a platinum and the suspension of a Pro.

    I was wondering. What’s the best way to fit 35s on the pro? Some people say you can do it stock, some people are saying shims and shackles and it’ll fit.

    any advice? I’m keeping the shocks by the way. Just want a meatier tire.

    I have a 2021 Pro and the only way I can fit 35’s is to either add the Coachbuilder TRD Pro Kit that works with the existing suspension or get a bigger lift all together. I’m pretty sure you can’t fit 35’s on a stock Platinum. Even with the Pro shocks.

    fit them on a stock platinum? maybe but they're gonna scrub like crazy backing up, turning and likely on compressions. i'm lifted close to 3" and just put 275/65/20's (34.1x10.8x20) on my truck in October and before i removed the spats and pushed all the liners out of the way they still were trying to chew up my mudflaps. An extra 1 of diameter and width is only going to make that worse.

    If you want it to cycle the suspension freely at any ride height, get a $250 BMC and trim some plastic behind the bumper and you’re good to go. Spacers, shims, trd pro, 5100s, coilovers, all of the options, have the same bottom out point. So whatever “lift” the wheel follows the same path as it compresses. So i recommend the BMC, get the 35s, they look perfect, they roll over all things in your path easily, and enjoy.

    edit: and here comes the “it won’t work, you need +800 offset, blah blah” so here’s a pic of my 35s with 0 offset wheels on bilstein 6112 right after stuffing it down some desert trails with no issues.

    There's multiple flavor of 35s, you get skinny which is 285 wide or 11", medium, which is 305 or 12", fat which is 12.5", or thicc at 13.5", each fit differently.

    I have skinny, 285/75r18 on stock pro wheels , which has od of 35.1 on stock pro suspension that didn't rub the mounts, it touches rear fender liner tiny bit at full flex, I chose it cause I'm weight conscious (skinny 35# weight usually in mid 60lbs, 35x12.5r18 weight in the 70s), and skinny 35s tend to have load index of 129 which allows me to tow heavy.

    Another one thing is offset, the lower the offset, the more likely you will rub something, example is after I went to fox 2.5 DSC , I needed spacers so it won't rub the reservoirs, went with bora 1.25" , but then I started rubbing at front bumper liner, which was solved by some heat gun and massage.

    Here is a photo of it, stock suspension on 285/75r18

    On my ‘17 Plat, I have 35’s which are 12.4” wide on stock Pro wheel with spacers giving a +28 offset. I also have a 3.5” lift and had to get a BMC to clear the rear of the wheel well.
