So…can I fit 285/70R18 on my stock 18 inch wheels? Looking for a better/aggressive look. I know stock ruggeds are 265/70R18.
Tire Upgrade ?

I'm interested in a set of the OEM rims & 265/70R18 Michelins from the two higher LC trims if anyone is looking to swap out. I have a 1958 on order.
I would love to do that, but I'm still on a waiting list (for the Land Cruiser Premium Package).
I have 275/70r18s on order. I’ll post them so you can see the fit.
Putting these new shoes on the stock rims?
Method 707s same offset as the factory.
I’m several months out myself, so no urgency. Dealer said I could feasibly end up with a 2025 model year which wasn’t exactly reassuring.
I'm still many months out also.
What brand tires ? I plan on swapping to 275/70/18 on stock rims just can’t decide on what tread design I like more aggressive design but don’t won’t the road noise of a MT . Would love a quite aggressive AT
Got it, let’s see if the stars align on the timing down the road and go from there.
I have Falken Wildpeak AT3’s on my 4Runner now and have run KO2’s and Ridge Grapplers in the past. All good tires but I’ll likely go with Wildpeak At3’s or the new AT4’s in 275 (maybe 285) on the stock wheels with no further modifications …for now. Still waiting for my LC
Thanks my thoughts as well . I am not sure about 285 . I don’t want it lug engine or kill fuel mileage
Just wanted to update ya'll on KO3's. Costco now has them in stock (you have to go in person to order them, not online). For now I'm thinking about just sticking with the stock 18 inch wheel and tire size (265 70 18).
I was quoted $1,221 for 4x KO3's including install cost. Not surprised that it beats out Discount Tire. Down the line I might consider bigger tires and a lift, but don't wanna be the guinea pig right out of the gate

It doesn’t beat out discount tire by much.. I went with discount tire and they gave me $30 off the BFG’s, and I got a 5% military discount. Out the door after taxes I paid $1257.00. The fact that there is a hell of a lot more discount tires around the country than Costco’s had a lot of influence on my decision.Just wanted to update ya'll on KO3's.

I’m going with KO3’s. I’ve had amazing luck with KO2’s. Ran them on the 4Runner this replaced as well as on the Sprinter.
I’m not a hardcore off-roader. I like to get to campsites and trailheads. I also like how they look.
I think 33's will fit fine with a leveling kit, which may not even be needed. Only gaining 1/2 height if I remember right.
Does anyone have information on possible tire upgrades with the 20" wheels. That is how my LC is optioned. 20' would not be my first choice, but it is a big hit to buy both tires and wheels to go to 18". I would like to see if I can put a bigger, more aggressive tire on the stock 20"
Since the GX OT comes with an advertised 33" tire, that should be very safe. How much more will fit? With all the big tires shown at exop west, hopefully we'll know soon.
