OME springs, toytec top plate spacer and 4crawler 1.25 body lift...

I would like to keep the stock wheels and I dont mind running a small spacer to shim out the wheels... Its a 2005 SR5 V6


Would a 285/75R16 be as big as you would go?

Im doing this more for looks, I building another bad ass 4x4 for fun on the weekends

well I think 285 is the biggest but you will prob have to trim some plastic.

265 looks good, I think. with some aggressive looking AT's, might look the part and still give you great overall driving (as you have something else as a weekend toy).
I think the Nitto terragrappler, one guy on here as Dunegrapplers w/ a flame tread that looked kinda cool... there are several good AT's out there that look good.
i'm sure others w/ chime in

Im looking at Nitto terragrappler 285/75R16's... but the 295/75R16's look tempting... but they might be too much and call for a ton of triming.

and this is the toy SAS'd Rav4:jester:

Rory (Bala de Plate) ran BFG A/T 285's on his rig. he has 4 inch lift spindles, all pro 1.5 wheel spacers, DR front coilovers and DR rear coils and shocks. He went to the 295's, but said he is going to probably go back to the 285's because of weight and fitment/ clearance issues. 285's with trimming (front inner fender and removal of all 4 mud flaps) is the max tire size for 4runners unless major mods are done.

That will be one sweet rav4 when you get finished. I did not see a roll cage. Are you planning on putting some kind of cage in that thing? With that V8 you should be able to do some good wheelies.

I think i might do a bit of a exo-cage.

So looks like 285/75R16 to be safe, thanks guys
