Bought a new camera and a prime lens, so I figured I would take it for a photoshoot.
I know, its not very clean.
Finally got my tires put on. 285/70/17 trail grapplers.

2015 SR5P with Toytec Ultimate 3" & Bilstein 5100's (3" F - 2" R). Mickey Thompson Baja MTZ P3 Tires @ 285/70R17. Wheels are MT Sidebiter II @ 17x9.
No rubbing.
Twinsies!
Thanks fellas! I decided to vinyl wrap instead of buying the Bushwacker flares. Figured I'll save a few hundred bucks for now and maybe get the Bushwacker flares once these are beaten up. So far its holding up well after some pin strip actions! ha! I bought VVIVID matte black vinyl wrap from amazon for about $80. I used a heat gun, squeegee, and xacto knife. I did not remove any flares (maybe just one but broke off some of the clips that holds the flare!:doh, simply apply the vinyl on the flares using the tools necessary to smooth out any air bubbles and then carefully cut out the edge of the flares. Took several practice attempts to get a clean cut around the flares...patience and attention to detail will get the job done....hope this helps and good luck if you're planing to do this mod! :cheers:
Did you have to do a Body mount chop with your wheel/tire set up?

After the wrap.
Any Rubbing?
Just had to remove my front mudflaps. Other than that no rubbing at all.
Do you have stock UCAs with this set up or Aftermarkets?
How do you like those 275's? Feel much power loss with the bigger heavier tire? I am debating between those and 285 KO2's...
