ProMed - Wondering if your tire size is more specifically the LT275/65R18?
I want to upsize my tires and I'm checking the measurements and specifications because your tire seems to be the absolute maximum that will fill in the spare location. I don't want to run without a spare.
Obviously I won't upsize until the OME lift.

Yes, I am running the LT275/65R18. As you can see from the pics of my spare, I don't think you will be able to go any larger than that and others have been unable to fit 285s in the stock spare location.

With just the tires the speedo is roughly off by ~5%, however you have to also calculate in the factory speedo error. Can't remember for sure, but I think that was around 3-4% so that should make it around 1-2% off total. The odo doesn't have a factory error, so it is still reading ~5% too slow.

I used this site for the rough error guess, there are several other factors such as manufacturer variance and tire wear: http://www.miata.net/garage/tirecalc.html

Hey ProMed, check out my write up about a meet in Alabama, any also any other members in the area.
Its gonna be a very big group with most of the members of Smokey Mountain Crusiers being there, including many members form the Carolinas.


I would love to see some other 4runners out there, especially yours! Truck looks great!

Wow that truck looks fantastic! You crazy people are slowly selling me on the 4th gens. I didn't like them AT ALL before I joined this forum!

Nice truck

Great combination of lift and tires. Where did you get the spidertrax spacers and what was the cost? I assume the front and rear are lifted the same amount?

Thanks guys, I really appreciate it!

The spacers are from Spidertrax and are $99 per axle.
