Looking awesome, but WE NEED DETAILS! Cutting? Rubbing? Spacers? Spacing? Offroaded yet? Articulation? Full lock steering?

These are the things we need to know!

I will salivate and await a reply!

Which lift did you go with? There are several options available now. I have the Rough County 2" strut lift... sitll in the box . I need to decide what tires I'm going with before I install. Please as requested above, DETAILS

Nice setup! I'm also in the DMV and just lifted my Mav with the RC 2" strut lift and put larger AT tires on although nothing like what you put on in terms of tire size. Where do you do your overlanding around the DMV? I'm pretty new to the area so it'd be interesting to hear where the good spots are semi local.

Nice- try and get stuck, report back. I got my recovery kit and tow strap ready for this weekend. Central Utah- Lets see what's up with these H/R lift springs and mud/ruts mode sans rear lockers -

looks really good.

I third what others have said. Details on your tires/rubbing would be appreciated. I have the 2-inch Eibach lift springs on the way and was thinking of going with 245/70/17s but maybe I can fit even larger?????

Careful out there, been watching Matt’s off road recovery and seems like they got a good amount of snow out that way, oh and also…. Don’t forget to air down! lol

No Air down for me- Heading down to the swell. Got 3 legit routes our highlander could handle with some coaxing, the Maverick better not get stuck - lol - Might try white pockets with full air/down later this spring..

I am 99% sure I am going to go with 265/65/17s. Their is another member here running those with no lift. But hopefully we will get some details from the OP on the exacts on his setup.

Almost guaranteed to rub with those unless you're looking to do some pinch weld modification and wheel well liner cutting......I would bet that OP had to mod the pinch weld and liner as well

Thread linked above 265/65/17s (post 18) completely stock suspension. Driving through sand and ruts in PR. No rubbing and no pinch weld or liner modifications. I just figure if he can do it on stock suspension I should be able to do it with a 2" lift, but of I have to bang a pitch weld... that is fine. My warranty is basically done anyway. Maybe 3 more months

I don't know why but I just find it hard to believe, it's a 30.6" tire AND it's about an inch wider than the 245/70R17 that people can't really seem to get to work without rubbing with the exception of the Toyo ATIII in that size. 245/70R17 is a 30.5" tire and the Toyo ATIII is in reality a little shorter than 30.5" which is why it fits without rubbing. By all means, go for it but I'm going to bet that it does rub
