Mine are Nitto Grapplers G2s on Mickey Thompsons 17x9. I think with a 1" offset. Basic leveling kit for now on it. 3" in front 1" rear.

- American Racing, Baja, 17X8, no center caps, 0mm offset, 4.488 backspacing, weight-26lbs (Spidertrax 1.5 inch spacers all around)
- BFG KO2, E load, 285/70/17
- ICON Stage 2, Heavy duty front coilovers at 2.5", aluminum extended travel rears and overland rear springs
- No BMC needed
- No rubbing with pavement driving. I haven't have them off the pavement yet, so we'll see.

Edit: I'm rubbing on the body mount at full lock in reverse (on and off road). I'll eat my words. BMC is needed.

New guy question but are FJC steelies the oem steel wheels for the Fj cruiser? I thought they didn't work due to disc calipers being different. This is exactly what i would like to use in the winter.

I got a set of 17x7.5 FJC steel wheels from the dealership last week and had Blizzak V2s mounted at Costco. No probs.
 
So after reading thru these posts, still not sure if I can use the TRD Pro wheels with BFG KO2 275-17's on a bone stock 2014 Trail w/o rubbing.
The TRD Pro's offset places the wheel almost an inch wider and I don't know if that plays nice with the stock height/wheel well.
All comments appreciated.

You will have some rubbing on the bumper and fender liners most likely. The bumpers are trimmed on the Pros at port when the suspension is installed, and that is with stock tires.
You should be able to run them, but you may have to do some minor trimming. There is a thread somewhere on 275's that shows guys who are running them on Pro wheels on stock rides.
