Dous and I have concluded that the 37's unlock the mystical beast of the 3.4 5vz-fe motor.
It does burn outs, and it keeps up with the Supercharged 7th injected 4runner.
Who needs to re-gear when it performs so well. My truck is awesome now.
We'll see if the Doc's 4runner takes the 37"s as well.

[MENTION=59542]Singtoe[/MENTION] - Couple questions.... I came across a set of 5 of these on some summit wheels. It looks like you're running the same wheel/tire combo. I'm guessing your wheels are 4" bs 84 series steelies from summit? I realllly need to replace my tires so in the meantime I'm thinking of buying these 37's to run for a bit because of price.
Did Doc test fit them on his truck? I'm just worried about clearance, though I've already hammered my pinch welds to help fit my 35's. I've read a couple different measurements.. 36.5" x 12.75, which I could make work with my setup. I've also read most don't air these down past 19psi and they start burping if you go lower and will unseat the bead around 15psi. Anyway, just looking for a second opinion from someone who's running these on a similar truck as mine. Thanks!
Also, could you give me a measurement from your front pinch welds to where you cut your front bumper for clearance? Also measurements in the rear? Much appreciated

These wheels were from Summit. They were 16.5" x 8.75" and they have 4" backspace.
The Aliminum Wheels are the Ultra Wheel 16.5" x 10" with 5" backspace. They fit with no spacers and clearance for the upper ball joint.
I am sure Doc will chime in. He is running a 1 1/2" body lift, and I put a 3" on my taco. I put a set of bushwacker flares on the Taco. They instructions for those was to cut the pinch weld off and a little bit off the corners. I don't remember how much I cut off. Now I still rub at full lock on the frame. It does limit how tight that I can steer.
We stuffed the 37's on the rear of DOC's 4runner and the bumper and the front part of the fender well needed to be trimmed. And only a little bit while at it.

Hmmmm that looks pretty do-able. Still waiting to hear if they are radials or bias. [MENTION=76419]Doc2012[/MENTION] were you able to snap any pics of the regular stance of your truck with 37's? Oops just read you're mounting them up today... can't wait to see the pics!

Here ya go:
Got these mounted up Thursday. Couldn't get them balanced for some reason. I put between 10-15 oz of BBs in them, and the entire time the steering wheel went side to side abovde 25MPH. IDK if they weren't mounted right, or what. so I slapped my 265s back on to make the trip home this weekend.
What I did was to cut 3/4" off of all 4 wheel wells. Then I beat the pinch welds, and rode them for a little while like that. I'm rubbing on the bottom of the fender when I turn and go into my driveway, its got a little lip on it. I'm thinking about going to a 2" body lift. See my build thread for more info and pics.
Here she sits with the 37's on and cut up.
And just for shits and giggles, here's a comparison of the 265s and the 37s.

They look great - I'm not sure if I'll be able to fit em though.... I'm still pondering it but I think I'm just trying to convince myself because of the price haha. We've got the same lift measurements but I think you've got the upper hand running these because of your body lift.
Since I'm starting to plan my straight axle swap and need new tires I was thinking of just grabbing some cheap 37's and running those til I start cutting away but I don't think I can fit them comfortably without cutting, and when I SAS I know I'll regret it. Trying to plan ahead, but I don't think it's gonna work.

My GF is from Vincennes. We need to make a trip up there to clear out her storage unit. If we can get some of these before we go up, I'll let you know.
