There's a lot to plan out so I wouldn't rush to get a quick solution otherwise you may end up paying for things 2 or 3 times over. That's probably why I'm only rubbing on my driver's side front and not my passenger side. Also know that there's something called "driver's side sag" with our 5th gens where the driver's side is actually lifted more than the other corners from factory because it's heavier. Some people report just needing UCAs and no body mount chop and others say they needed both (UCAs and a BMC). Assuming people are going with 285s, one person might rub up front and others may not. One thing to keep in mind is that 4runners are like finger prints in how they respond to lifts and bigger tires. If that doesn't work, I'll get aftermarket control arms. I'm trying to see if I can get away with maxing out my caster angle in my lower control arms.
I have heaps of space up front around the front splash guard, but I rub at full steering lock -gets way worse if the suspension is compressed while at full lock. I'm currently running 285s with a 2.5 lift up front, 2 lift in the rear and no aftermarket UCAs. 275 is very safe and gives you obviously 10mm more width. People are doing 275 with maybe a front splash guard push. But the 4Runner is also showing its age, last revised in 2014 after the fifth-generation model debuted in 2010, ahead of a sixth-generation model expected in 2020 or 2021. If you want something with more traction ASAP, get a 275 series tire instead of a 285. The 285 is the width, so at full steering lock, the edges of the tread are what rub on stuff. Want a tire with more traction, might as well go a little bigger at the same time.Īny suggestions? Was looking at Toyo Wildpeak Im going camping in 3 weeks and its going to be very muddy. What would be a better choice? My truck is 100% stock. I thought the problem would be the sidewall height. So the problem is the 285 and not the 75?
