265/75/16 duratracs rubbing issues

[Defend_HI75]

Just installed my semi new pair of goodyear duratrac tires with about 90% of thread left on it and for some reason I had some crazy amount of rubbing on turns. these tires are sitting on procomp 1069 16x8 wheels with -12 offset with 4 inch backspacing. Ive looked through other threads but a lot of people running these tires say theres little to no rubbing and alot of those threads were also from 2012 so i didnt want to revive a dead thread. Does anyone on here running the same or similar set up as me running into the same issues?

this is a 2001 limited 4runner

I just installed Spidertrax wheel spacers on my 99 limited. I am running 265-75-16 Toyo Open Country ATs that have about 2000 miles on them. I got some rubbing from the addition of the spacers. I had to trim a little off of the front bottom corner of the flare. It wasnt hard and didnt take long to trim enough out of the way to keep from rubbing.

Mine rubbed on the actual frame and on the inner fenders. Also had rubbing on the pinch weld of course w/285's though. Are you stock? You should be fine with minimal trimming... when you get time find out where exactly it is touching/rubbing by slowly turning ur steering wheel until you hear/feel it. This should only be a 5-10 min job with a hack-saw or box cutter w/sharp blade. Unless your suspension is really shot you should be able to clear those no prob.. You might wanna look into an upgrade. You may have to search for it, but if you need more info your on the right forum!

*you will still rub (minimal) with or without wheel spacers! It can be done...

Good luck

It's likely due to the offset of the aftermarket wheels, you'll need a bit more lift, or a bit of trimming to get the rubbing sorted out.
