Curious on your thoughts after you've had more time to drive it: 1) are the road manners more harsh with a load E tire and 2) is it more sluggish, and assume less MPG. Hard to baseline those comparisons with only 300 miles pre new tires, but curious nevertheless.
Tire Upgrade ?

I’m still waiting to see 285/70r18 AT’s (wildpeaks?) on stock 18x7.5 wheels, LC trim with no lift or other suspension mods. It appears 275’s fit fine but 285’s??
Anyone know who owns this vehicle?
I have a spare set of the exact same TRD Pro wheels and tires, wanted to know if it rubbed at full lock/stuff?
I think the 1958 doesn't have the disconnect, so can accommodate bigger tires at full flex, so good to make the distinction?
Don’t have a part number for you yet, but TIS says they’re a 20mm offset.

Anxious to hear the answer to your question as well! I have seen that same vehicle in posts and photos elsewhere. Considering the exact wheel setup. Looks just right!
I'm just gonna send it. I have the full set (including a spare!) ready to go in my garage for whenever my LC gets here.
Thanks! 20 offset looks like the maximum poke I'd want, from people's pictures, but I'll have to do a test fit.
Have you tried asking @Dragoon ? Since he was the one who posted the picture.
I did, he found the photos elsewhere and it wasnt his vehicle.
Note that offset is relative to the wheel width, not the vehicle. A +20 offset in an 7.5 inch wheel looks VERY different to a +20 offset in a 9 inch wheel.
Yep. Until I have a vehicle and wheel in hand, I also find this website helpful: Alloy Wheel & Tyre Fitment Calculator. Offset, Tyre Stretch and Speedo Error | Will They Fit
This was the reason I went with the Falken Rubitrek which is a milder AT tire than the Wildpeaks. I hope they eventually workout for you. Let us know what PSI they were running at.
We need more photos at different angles ; )
Looking forward to seeing the results!
What other 18” wheels are available with +40 offset, plus or minus?
