Installed 295/70R17 Mickey Thompson MTZP3

[DeepSea]

Recently installed Mickey Thompson 295/70R17 MTZP3 on SCS SR8 Wheels. Really stoked to say the least. My favorite tire size now as I have ADD when it comes to wheels/tires. Started with stock then lifted my 4R with 285/70 KM2 to 305/65 Deegan 38 to 285/75 Nitto Ridge Grapplers to now these 295/70. I'm officially done with changing tires out :der: Thankfully I have a dealer account with 4WheelParts so tires are basically swapped out as I resell them for cost.

Bmc?

Bmc?

Definitely but it's really minor

Beast man!
Still no issues with BL?

Nice! I did the same with STT Pro, no regrets. 3 inch lift, bmc and 4* caster. No rub, but I do have front plate bumper.

Looks awesome!! Keeps us posted on noise and how they perform. I have been debating these or the STT Pros in 295/70/17.

SCS Rims

I like those SCS rims. I am looking at the Stealth 6 without the bead lock. Weigh just 24 lbs.
The cost of tax and shipping drives the price up to $250 each. Other states may pay little or no tax, but not here in So Cal.
They're in Oakland, CA. Wish I could go pick them up. I may be up that way next week. Hmmm?

Looking good. I ran Mickey Thompson MTs on my FJ when I lived in HI.

I'm trying to decide between the same tires. Leaning towards MTZ but I don't think you can make a bad choice with either.

No issues with BL at all. I had to chop quite a bit of the BMC and a little bit of the inside fender where the mud flap used to mount. I'll post a pic tomorrow.
I actually wanted the STT Pros but couldn't find a dealer here on Oahu. What's interesting is Cooper owns Mickey Thompson and Dick Cepek which both are sold at our local 4WheelParts but not Cooper. The STT Pros are literally a mix of the MT MTZP3 and Cepek Extreme Country:

Very nice. I love the width of 295 and larger. Looks good on your rig.

BMC chop and the pinch weld I did with a cutting wheel. Took about 20-30 minutes each side.

Thanks bro and I agree on the size

Did you sell the 285's?

 

[DeepSea]

Did you sell the 285's?

Actually no if referring to the 285/75/17 Nittos

Finally got the 295/70/17s MTZ p3, scs wheels...3inch lift revtek leveling kit ... spc uppers and bmc with custom plate welded and decent amount of trimming thanks for the idea with your build. Started following you on YouTube. Love the look !! Cant stop looking at the Rig !!

 

[Woll53186]

Deep sea what do you use to clean the scs wheels looking for something safe to use non acid cleaner was thinking Adam's eco wheel cleaner or just soap and water what do you think ?

wheels do or do not have spacers? stance looks wider than i would have expected without spacers behind the wheels, maybe its the 295s tho.

SCS wheels and 285/75s going on soon and trying to determine if the wheel spacers will stay or go.

thanks
