This looks incredible! Can you send a profile shot? Does this not rub and are you comfortable that it won't hit the wheel wells in offroad conditions? Thanks!!

Got some ko3 275/70r18 mounted on my TEs A little background I purchased these wheels 8yrs ago from AUTOFASHION here in San Diego They were then mounted on my 2016 taco If u search โte37 Tacoma,โ u will see my blue taco in the results

Still havent had much drive time on with this setup. I can say so far so good. Time will tell. I will update my findings.
For offroad this setup will probably need a lift.

Apparently the fe has a spare wheel/rim that matches the other rims. Can anyone vouch for the lc premie on 20โs if the spare also matches whatโs on the vehicle?
I believe all models match. My 1958 matches and the manual provides for 5 wheel rotation pattern.
Iโve heard the same in the past. Time will tell how these new Road + Trail ATโs do, they are using different compounds and my understanding is it is Cooperโs first AT designed entirely using computer modeling. Iโve read that Cooper was given a big budget with the Goodyear acquisition, but otherwise let alone to design and build tires.
Does anyone have photos of the stock 20" wheel with upgraded tires? Especially the 33" size 275/60R20?
Also, what is the stock tire for the 20" wheels?

Mine has a matching 20" spare wheel
My 20" stock wheels came with Dunlop Grandtrek PT22 265/60r20 tires
I would be careful with the talk of no rub and larger tires on this forum. SOME people wonโt ever take their lc off road and thatโs fine, that is their choice. If you do go off road, especially rock crawling, youโll want to be sure you donโt rub at full stuff/full lock. Another issue to think about is fitting tall, wide MT even with no rub can the engine spin those 35โ tires in deep mud or snow? Personally I think Toyota should put a slightly more aggressive tire than they usually put on their 4wd vehicles but they do it for MPG and smooth ride. It appears many people swapping out tires immediately do it for aesthetic value. Iโll swap in November for blizzaks.
Anyone have experience with the General Grabber ATx? It is one of the only options in SL for 275/70/18. Very mixed reviews on multiple websites. It rains a lot in Mobile, AL where I live and I need some wet traction on the highway and some decent mud traction for my hunting camp.
Yes, absolutely no rub.
I've upgraded to 305/65/18 right now, also no rub, did some offroad as well, went smooth.
Thanks. The US Dunlop site has no info on that tire, all I can find is a Japanese language press release saying it will be on the Land Cruiser!
Yeah same, appears to be a special OEM version. I was trying to find the listed weight to compare when tire shopping, but no luck. Did the Japanese site happen to list it?
No it was just a press release with the model and size, no additional specs.
Out of curiosity (because I'm trying to make this decision as well) did you go with E or SL wildpeaks? Any reasoning for your load rating choice if you don't mind sharing?
The KO2's look great! Method 703/704 look so good on the LC's. I'm locked in on the Method 703+35 w/ KO3 285 when she comes in
