Genuine question here: Have you ever seen or known this to cause any problem on any vehicle ever?

I had one of my Raptors Stealth wrapped. Pros: -It is very resistant to scratches, door dings, and all things damaging to paint ( including the sun). It really does self heal in the sun. -Looks are subjective, but I really liked the look of the satin on my white truck. It was subtle with...

" I was alarmed to read on another forum" I was able to identify the problem with your eco mode. It has a bad internet sensor.

Ko3's are really good a alot of things. Balancing is not one of them. The majority of tire guys will tell you what a beast they are to balance. Some tires I have been told are nearly impossible to get right. This is a very common tale with the Ko3's/Ko2's. The gentleman I was working with...

I know there are some fabricators with them in the works, with additional support to the tow hooks.

Twenty…..freaking……nine……gallons??!!! Aussie Aussie Aussie. the math on that gives me 600.3 miles of range.

love it. I think you have really hit the sweet spot of performance, fit, and look. That is of course subjective. But Im in.

This.....alll day long. I think a skid bolted to the radiator support is a very bad idea.

Buy a Raptor or a Jeep 392. The LC performs really well in the power department for what it is. I hope they dont do any performance mods as this will decrease reliability. After having owned 3 raptors which I loved, I have no desire for a faster accelerating offroad masterpiece.

if you want to drive you will be fine with the stock tires if you take proper precautions in areas that arent ideal. On that drive you would be dealing with more ice than deep snow. Slow down and you will be fine. Excessive speed is the cause of most winter issues. You are not going to get...

Shutting off the nannies is less intuitive in the LC than my other cars. Bit of a miss IMO on Toyotas part.

These are back up for sale, previous buyer didn’t take delivery of 1958 LC and so didn’t finalize sell.

Mine didn’t either…..oh sorry I’m in Arizona. We don’t use make believe time. ;)

17= the diameter of the rim 8.5= the width of the rim 6= the number of lug bolt holes 139.7= PCD (basically if you drew a circle connecting all the bolt holes what is the diameter of that circle) +25 is the offset from center

I have personally never owned a vehicle where the glass didn’t crack when hit by a rock. Struggling to understand the “quality” question.

Standard trim rims are +60 offset. Easiest to understand is the more positive the offset the closer the wheel is to the body of the vehicle. The more negative the offset the more the wheel moves away (pokes out) from the body of the vehicle. The more the wheel pokes out the smaller the tire...

Any small air compressor will work. Higher end=convenience in time. Lower end =takes more time. Both accomplish the same thing. I have never really offloaded enough to consider an engine mounted air compressor, and I off-road more often than many of the engine compartment mount guys. It is cool...

Better tires: there are many good threads on that tires to pick. I am running Nitto Terra Grapplers G3 275/70/R18. It is a great all around tire for on and offroad. A system to air down and air back up. Even though you won’t be rock crawling and doing heavy off-roading. Airing down the tire...

LC is not a performance engine. I would not use a chip to alter it in any way. There is so much technology engineered in keeping the LC turbo 4 cylinder engine cool (cylinder angle, volume, shape, injection, precision combustion) and that is the easy part. Longevity is directly related to heat...

Looks amazing. Congrats on dialing it in.

Just sayin, if you want to move to a 17.......... in stock. https://www.methodracewheels.com/collections/bead-grip-wheels/products/703-method-bronze?variant=39290143113277

In the photos it is clear that they chopped off the back half and retrofit it as an overlanding rig. I dont see a scenario where any car manufacturer is going to to warranty any defect in a vehicle that has been that altered from its original state even if it is a common practice. One would...

Shiny tires is the easiest way to spot a pavement princess vehicle. Anyone who goes offroad with any regularity would never put a dust magnet on their car, especially not the wheels.

if you took the mudflaps and air dams off and did a significant lift it might fit, but you have to think of offset like a ball on a string where the string is the axel and the ball is the tire (not a perfect analogy but you get the point). The longer the distance between where the string...

Sorry to bear bad news. But 0% chance a 285 doesnt rub with a +18 offset. The more negative offset is the killer here. Stock offset it would fit.

285/70. I would do 275, but it isn’t available in the SL in that size. If I can get all the components together it will be method 703 with +45 offset, 2.5 preload collars and 1 inch in the rear. I think it gives the best of all worlds, MPG, Ride, and look.

Bump

I ran these for 150 miles in the 275. It really is an awesome tire. I’m moving to a 17 inch rim so I’m selling them if anyone is interested. I already have the G3 on order for the 17 inch rim. https://www.landcruiserforum.com/threads/275-70r18-g3-terra-grapplers-sl-on-stock-lclc-rims.2818/
