cragar soft 8s

Looking to see if anyone has 15" or 16" cragar soft eights on their stock 3rd gen. Wondering what size tire and how much of an offset/backspacing you have.

Thanks in advance.

16x7 with 4' BS. I'm running 285/75/16 tires and no rubbing[So Far].

Thanks man. How much lift did those ol man emus give you? I read in another post that someone tried throwing 15" cragars on but the angle of the rim was rubbing on his brakes. So I'm leaning towards a 16" rim. If I get the Exact same rim you have and put them on 265/70s (which I think are the biggest tire you can go without lift/rubbing) BFG A/T KO i shouldn't have a problem right?

Got any pics? Think I can go 265/75?

Nevermind About the pics el guapin. i searched for posts by you and found the one about your hood scoop. nice lookin rig. but if you or someone else could answer my other questions id appreciate it.

I got right around 3' of lift. about the brakes, if your runner came with 16' wheels then most certainly it has the 4-pot calipers. A 15' wheel will not fit because it would not clear the brakes. If you go with the same soft 8s, you wont have any issues. You will fine running 265/70s w/o lift. If you do lift it with the OME setup, you can go with 285/75s

Awesome. Ya my 4runner came with 15" rims stock and I was worried about clearing the caliper with the 15" cragars so tomorrow Ill be ordering and 16x7 rims with 4" backspacing tomorrow. Hopefully will be ordering the 265/70s sometime next week along with getting some tint. I'll be sure to post some pics up then. Thanks again man i appreciate it!
