I’ve looked, but get conflicting info. Has anyone measured the 255/80r17 cooper’s height mounted on a vehicle ? I’m running 285/70r17 duratracs and they measure 31.5” tall. Wanting to go a bit larger on my next set. Leaning towards 255/80’s. Not concerned about rubbing, I’ve already trimmed fenders and done a body mount chop.

Also +1 on spare tire fitment, no problems here either.

No rubbing from full lock to lock.

Even if I go taller in the future, I will probably stick with a 255





This is stock suspension? About to buy some nice used 245/75r17's for my wifes new used 4runner. I am hoping they fit.
Thanks! your goldie is pretty!

Thanks, we refer to goldie as “old man gold”. Geriatric at heart but wears hiking shoes.

The suspension isn’t stock… it’s got an approx. 2.5” lift using:

Bilstein 6112 front (one down from the highest perch setting)
Bilstein 5100 rear
OME 2895 rear springs
Wheelers Superbumps front and rear
¼” spacer on driver side to correct lean

Just scored a set of 245/75r17 Michelin LTX M/S2 for $350 on craigslist with 1800 miles on them from a 2019 Jeep Wrangler.

the 16s might not fit on your 17" wheels, 16" wheels might not fit your calipers

255/75r17??

I just put bilstein 5100s on the front with stock coils. I set them on the third from the bottom (about 2'' of lift in the front) and want to get a new set of tires. Would I be okay with 255/75R17 BFG ATs?? or will I get a lot of rub?

You should be fine. if you look at my build thread, I swapped my xreas to new FJ suspension and added 255/75/17. Then I got FJ wheels with different offset which help with the stance so the 255/75/17 doesn't look so skinny. ALSO picked up these tires as a jeep take off so it was practically free. With this set up I get about 1 inch lift and I am roughly 1 inch away from rubbing in the front when I turn. SO from your 2 inch suspension lift you should not have any trouble with this size tire nor from the aggressive lug pattern.
