    Hello,

    I have been reading several threads on the fitment of 285/75/18 on the TRD pro. I already have these tires, but I would like to install spacers.

    I'm not sure if it is possible, and if so is there a maximum size I can use.

    Everything stock on my pro except for the tires.

    Thanks!

    1.25" is probably as big as you want to go, you will need bumper shims so it won't rub in reverse.

    I'd like to revive this thread and find out if the OP @AB8A_TRD ever installed the spacers and how things work out.

    I installed 285/75R18 AT4W's on my 2021 TRD Pro with stock suspension and Pro wheels and while I was able to get ris of rub throu alingment, 1/4" Bumper Spacer and the front fender liner manipulation to slide it forward, I'm now finding that I am rubbing at full lock on the actual frame behind the front control arm. I'm just concerned 1.25" spacers will move the rub back tot he front or worse, to the Body Mount. I's actually like to do .5" hubcentric spacers but I don't want to have to install extended wheel studs...

    Some brands make 1 inch wheel spacers if 1.25 is too much. They work fine with the stock Pro or OR package wheels as there are some extra space for the spacer lug nuts. If using other wheels, you probably need the 1.25 spacers to allow for the lugs as most wheels dont have that extra space in back.

    I have same stance as your Pro and currently run 285/75-18s, stock +60 OR wheels and no rubs.
    I have +35 offset wheels I will be installing, basically same offset as the stock wheels with about a 1 inch spacer. To make everything work I will be installing 1/2 inch bumper shim and will lose the front mudflaps.

    @frichco228 Yeah I don't think I would have had any rubbing issues had I chosen any other tire model in this size. The Falken is taller and wider than every other tire in this size
