Who else is running 315-70-R17 on a 3rd Gen?

Just had a set of steel titan rims dropped off to me with a set of BFG 315-70-R17's. I decided to check and see if it would fit my 4runner and did on back and front. Was not touching upper a arm, and has space. They roll great, love the high up stance, and all that. Only rubs on upper a arm when at full lock. It barely touched the inside of the fender during a test run, and will be fixed soon. My question is how many other people are running 315-70-17??/

What did you have to do to make them work?? Pics?? Thoughts?? Thanks!/

I'm running BFG 315/70/17s as well, on FJ Alloys with 1.25" Spacers, I've got 3" of body lift which is way more than enough for a smaller running 315. I'm looking to ditch the body lift altogether eventually, probably will have to trim the fenders and quarters and tub the firewall, I think the rear tubs will be fine though.

What's tub the fender wall?? Mine barely rub, going to just remove all plastic shit along with front bumper and all that. Going to just so a skid plate.

Here's the best write up for tubbing the firewall, most people have issues with the front tires rubbing when at full stuff and turned, this is the best way to fix it.

This shows the firewall tubbing less in depth on a 3rd gen 4Runner, as well as opening up the rear quarter panels a bit.

I also opened up my fender flares when I was installing them, hoping that when i ditch the body lift they won't interfere at all.

Other than that you should be good since you're planning on ditching the inner fenders and front bumper.
