285x70x17 MTR's and what cutting I'll need to do

[Expat]

The only rubbing I got, gave off a slight mark on one of the triangles (the bigger one). It only shows because the dirt was rubbed away. No plastic was removed.

I believe you could fit 275's on stock wheels with minor rubbing but you could not wheel this way, and you may still rub a little in driveways maybe requiring the triangles to be removed. On the road (hardtop) I see no reason for concern with rubbing some plastic. For the cost of a spacer lift, you'd be crazy not to get a lift tho. If I had the time over, personally I'd get the Cornfed spacers with a 3" lift capacity rather than the Daystar 2.5". The 275's do fill the wheel well nicely but a bit extra space would be sweet.

I had no rubbing on the A-arms. There is a full "finger thickness" between the tire and the arm.

My personal experience - YMV.

One more question........will the 275/70-17 fit into the 4Runner's spare tire compartment??

Don't know. Haven't tried.

04Runner, that looks sick man! Seeing these kind of tires on the 4Runner make the Revos look like a passenger car tire. Looks really good. Can you get a side shot from a little farther away (or a smaller pic) so we can see the whole setup a little better?
