I had to do all of those mods to fit -38 offset wheels with stock tires. the tires stuck out about 1.5 " past the body. if you want big tires and a lot of offset with no mods, get a jeep or a full size truck.

Yes, I currently have 285/60R20s on and they only run i have in full reserve. Have a 3in lift and just thought it would help…. So my best option is to get small tires with I don’t want to cut anything. I still would like the tires to stick out about an inch. Thanks for the help.

The 285/55R20 was in the yellow (minor modification required with STOCK wheels) not quite in body mount chop territory.

Now you’re talking a 285/60R20. This is squarely in BMC territory. With the specific geometry a 4Runner has, you’ll hear from several people that backspacing helps NOTHING.

Get back on stock rims (17” TRD or SR5 or 20” limited) with positive backspacing and you’ll require the least amount of modification.

If you don’t want to cut ANYTHING, you have to downsize to a 275/55R20.

Yes. If you only rub in full lock, reverse, you should be able to downsize and get rid of rub completely.

If you got them from Discount Tire or somewhere with a “customer satisfaction guarantee” you can probably step down from a 285/60R20 to a 285/55R20 and be good.

I say this because several people (like me) are running Limiteds with 275/55R20 bone stock with no rubbing. You should be able to tuck more than that.

285/55 is a really nice low profile all terrain. Like a 33x12.50R20 they just look “expensive” - I like the look

like i said before, offset wheels that stick out from the body will rub even with stock tire size. if you insist on having your tires stick out from the body, you're going to have to trim.
