Question for you, before you install the suspension mods:

I am interested in those tires, but I am told they will not work on 2015 Trail with stock 17 x 7.5 wheels and stock suspension.
Can you report on any rubbing issues you have?
If they work with the TRD 17" rims, they should work with stock rims, no?

I have slight rubbing at full lock turning left and in reverse, nothing major. I drive normally and take wider turns and have no rubbing. Im sure with some minor trimming you won't have any issues. Keep in mind I've yet to go off road with this setup, more than likely you'll get more rubbing. Nothing some front spacers and minor trimming couldn't fix I reckon. It will be a mystery as to what is getting rubbed at full lock because I don't care to fix the issue until after I lift her up.

The TRD wheels and stock wheels have different offsets and are different size so I can not give you info about stock wheels.

EDIT: ZERO RUBBING WITH LIFT

Love the tires, best I've ever owned. Performed flawlessly (on several grades) in Colorado ...dirt, loose rock, snotty mud, frozen mud, 3"snow. I was in several situations where Crawl Control with these tires got me out of sticky situations with less stress, its awesome to say the least!

Not skinny to me, plus all of the ruts on the off-road trails and dirt roads were made from skinny tire vehicles so I fit right in. When you try and stick a wide tire in skinny ruts i find its more difficult to maneuver, had that problem with my f250 truck all the time granted they were 35X12.5

Looks awesome man. I'm still in research mode, so is this is a 3" lift in the front, 2" in the back?

Thanks!

I have the front coils adjusted to show 1.25" of threads on top, which equals 2.5", and yes the rear springs are 2" lift. After the suspension settles ill probably adjust the front coils to show 1.5" of threads.
