FJ Cruisers of Northern California
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.

Permalink Reply by LuvDirt on June 10, 2012 at 10:10pm I think those will fit. The 285/75/17's are 1.1" taller so I'm not 100% sure

Great AT tire choice.

Permalink Reply by sandyann on June 13, 2012 at 7:47am 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.
