Tire Upgrade ?

Regarding wheels....I just came across these Fifteen 52 Bundt SV wheels that are made for Sprinters. I think these would look awesome on the LC! I'd love the Magnesium Gray versions with 34" BFG KO3's. And they're already made in +40mm offset. I emailed them to ask if they'd PLEASE make these in the Toyota bolt pattern. Bundt SV _ Magnesium Grey

Late to the thread, but I wanted to mention that 285/65/18 tires are exactly the same rolling diameter as the OEM 265/70/18s. Iโ€™ll paste the tire size calculator result below. This would mean we could safely keep the OEM spare.

I have Wildpeak AT3 on my [outgoing] Tahoe, I see they are available in 285/65/18. Has anyone tried them on a LC?

The few I've looked at generally require a minimum 8 or 8.5" wide wheel, wider than stock -- you'd need to upgrade your wheels. Do you know of any standard load options in that size? I might have to check, the few I've looked at are E load, a standard load or C load might work on the stock rims. It will hang down noticeably in the spare location.

Edit: WildPeak A/T4W comes in standard load in that size, requires a minimum 8" rim.

Fair point. I hadnโ€™t gotten as far as figuring out the OEM wheel width, Sounds like itโ€™s 7โ€.

7" on the 1958, 7.5" on the other two trims. The two most common (so far) Toyota wheels people are getting (mostly to replace the 20" once) are 8" and 8.5". See the second tab of the spread sheet at: 2024 Land Cruiser Stock 18" Wheel Tire Options

After a quick search, the only standard load AT type tire I found in that size that fits the 7.5" rims is the Yokohama Geolandar X-AT.
 
Upgraded tires on stock 18 inch wheel. Went Toyo Open Country AT3 275/70/18. Ride great.

My next purchaseโ€ฆ

Did you have Michelins? If so, do you notice any degradation of ride quality, increased tire noise, or decrease of fuel economy?

Yes, ditched those. Ride is probably a little better imo, no decrease in mpg, and these tires are quiet compared to other BFG All Terrains I've had on my Jeeps.

any rub lock to lock? Did you also replace the spare?
 
new member here, got a 1958 last month and recently got tires put on. Nitto Ridge Grapplers, 285/70/18, stock 18" wheels

no trimming needed. mudflaps were removed so they dont get caught on stuff

love the stock look - once lifted, will probably throw 35's on those rims

Looks amazing, did you do a westcott collar on that? I am debating between these tires and the Toyo Open Country AT III...how is the ride on these tires? I was going to try the Falken Wildpeak's but at 68 lbs a tire, was concerning to me - great looking set up!
 
After a lot of back and forth settled for some Falken Wildpeak AT4W OEM size, SL load range
Trying to keep the best everyday comfort, MPG and give that extra winter and offroad capabilities. And of course, the looks.

Still hard to believe Toyota shipped this cars with all seasons.
