FJ Cruisers of Northern California
TIRES
Does anyone know if I can fit some 285/75/17r tires with a 3" pro comp lift? Works out to be 11.2205" wide and 33.8307" high. I have 265/70/17r (10.4331 wide and 31.6063 high) now and they look really small.

looks like I may have to install some spacers, I think I will clear the body buy might rub on the UCA. Have you tried this before?

you will most likely need to do a BMC if you rub too much but they will definitely fit

I really hope so. I just order 285/70/17's Nitto Terra Grapplers. I guess I'll find out later this week.

I think those will fit. The 285/75/17's are 1.1" taller so I'm not 100% sure

you will fit no rubbing on the UCA bmc will help with any body mount rubbing

They should fit. I've got those same tires/size. 2.5" King lift. I do have BMC but I don't think I needed it for those.
Great AT tire choice.

Do you mean the Nitto? I had those on my F150 and they were great...except in really slushy snow. Could be the tires were just too big though. There were 325/65/17's...I've downgraded a bit.

Thanks Keltic! I considered 295's but I already have chains that fit the 285's and I didn't want to have to cut the really big ones to fit. I know the FJ will never need them but if you've ever travelled in Yosemite National Park you know they'll make you put chains on anything and everything. I keep them in the truck for just those occasions.
