Hey guys, this is my first time posting on this forum so sorry if I ask stupid questions and or ones that have already been answered.
So I have an 08 runner Sport Edition V8 with FJ springs (front and back) and bilsteins 5100 (adjustable height), I'm pretty sure its set on the first notch but it might have been the second notch, sorry I installed them almost a year ago and I don't recall. Either way its 98% leveled, the front might be SLIGHTLY lower than the back but I think If I went to the next notch that the front would be higher than the back.
Ok, so knowing that info I want/need to get new tires and wheels (I'm running stock 265/65r17. I want to do 17in Black Rhino Mint wheels and the some kind of A/T tire. the 265 looks small but I hear with almost any 285 you'll have a good amount of rubbing. I know you can cut the mud flaps off. I guess you can push in the front wheel well plastic in?
I can't find a tire in the 275 category thats 6 ply and looks cool. I don't want a 10 ply BFgoodrich A/T, I don't off-road I don't need a heavy duty tire, I don't off road or haul heavy stuff.
So my question, with the current "lift" I have on my ride will 285's rub? is so will a 1.5 rear lift and raising the front bilstein to the top notch prevent rubbing?
