I'm worried about getting crap from everyone about another tire post. But can't find very good details online about anyone running a larger tire than a 275/65 R18 (32.1 x 11) on a lifted LR4.
Has anyone run the next size larger 285/65 R18 (32.5 x 11.6) on your LR4?
I currently run a 275/65 R18 BFG AT. They need to be replaced and in a week or two Toyo is coming out with a tire called Open Country RT. It will be a hybrid between a MT and AT tire similar to the Goodyear Duratrack. The RT smallest size is the 285/65 R18. I would like to try them if they will fit with rods or gap tool on full time and front end aligned.
Im currently using the GAP tool for a 2 inch lift and have cut the fenders enough that I can even run the 275/65 R18's with no Gap tool lift and never rub on pavement in normal height. And never rub off road with the 2 inch lift from the Gap tool in normal or off road height even when flexed out. So thinking I might be able to squeeze the next size bigger in.
But I have also read online that BFG's run smaller than they advertise so maybe that's why I don't rub now?
Thoughts???
Thanks,
Jud
