lifted 2", 20x9 KMC xd monsters with 285/55/20 nitto terra graplers, pic inside...

Hey guys, just put a lift/level kit and put these wheels and tires on. They rub on full lock turns a lil bit but thats just the plastic wheel well. it doesnt rub THAT bad so I'm give it a few days and let wear through so i dont have to hack them up. I'll post more pics soon

I like the look, but you're likely to have more rubbing than a little plastic. Particularly when the suspension compresses while turning.

I'd take a look at the uca's. It's got to be really close. What is the width and offset of the wheels?

For the rubbing on the body and corner of the fender, you may want to consider a 1/2" body lift.

Nice wheels. Have you considered tinting your windows?

looks good. I've always liked the silver 4Runners.

What kind of leveling kit did you use?

The rears have the OEM tint. I actually dont have tint on the front windows, I might do it soon. I'm not that concerned with tint honestly.

The tires are SUPER close to the suspension but It doesnt seem to rub. Only rub I get is on the front plastic in reverse when turned 80%. I trimmed the rear plastic a little bit. I'll check the suspension again.

The wheels are 20x9 with a 18mm offset. I'm thinking of putting a very subtle spacer setup, whats the thinnest spacer setup I can get that will sit flush on my stock studs? I'm thinking 10mm? 15mm?

I have a 2"-2.25" lift overall

The wheels are nice...but IMHO it would look a lot better if you black out the headlights, the grill... and powdercoat the bull bar ....or at least the last two.

its a lease?

I'm just wondering why you would spend all that money on a lift and other mods and new rims and tires when you have to give it back to the stealership in a year. Are you going to take the lift off and keep everything?

I'll sell the stuff off, or keep them if I get something else they fit. Its just a spacer kit and wheels/tires man. these wheels fit chevy/ford and toyota. Theyre universal 6 lug, (12 holes total). Someone will take them I'm sure. And the spacer kit I will sell off for 100$ on here so I'm sure it will work out.
