Hey guys
Thinking about buying these tires. 285/70/17 nitto grappler m/t trail. Anyone ever mount these on a stock 2015 trail wheel? Any idea on specifics for fender mods? Thanks so much for any insight, the company won't take the tire back after mount attempts have been made.
Anyone ever mount these on a stock 2015 trail wheel?
Yes, they will fit and you may or may not need to trim. On 3 of the 4 4Runners that I have lifted needed the trimming. All 4 needed the front mudflaps removed.
Any idea on specifics for fender mods?
Front tires, back side of tire.
Pull off the mudflap. There are clips and screws holding it in place.
Front tire, front side of tire.
It is a two step process.
Step one, move the inner liner forward one inch and reattach it. You need a 10mm wrench to break the screws loose, a Phillips screw driver and an ice pick. To see the screws you will need to lie down under the front bumper, looking up and you have remove the two screws, one silver and one black, that you remove to free up the inner liner. Push the inner liner forward one inch and fasten it in place using the above-mentioned tools and screws.
Step two, you need a cut-off saw and masking tape. With the inner fender pushed forward and reattached, you will notice the bumper needs to be trimmed back one inch. Use the masking tape to make a guide line. The rest of the process should be self explanatory.
Sorry, I don't have time to post pictures. PM me if you need more details.
