Previous Thread Next Thread Print Thread Rate Thread Wrong tire and rim - need help!!! #572212 02/23/05 12:27 AM Joined: Dec 2003 Posts: 59 Mesa, AZ A AZTBob OP Getting the Wheeling Fever Put 285/75/16 on my 03 taco and I'm rubbing the frame. The rims are 16 x 8 with 3.75" BS - I would have thought that would have cleared - I was wrong! Anyhow I need to figure out what to run, Discount is willing to do whatever I want to fix it but I need to decide tonight. If I need a rim with more BS - suggestion? I thought I would swap them out with 255/85/16 but I would have to go to BFG MT's - not sure how thrilled I am about that. Oh I have a 2" body lift How about the steering- is there an adjustable stop? Thanks!! TBob TBob All but SAC'ed! Had God not driven man from the Garden of Eden, the Sierra Club would have. P.S.

The backs dont rub do they? Just the front? Re: Wrong tire and rim - need help!!!

It was rubbing on the backside of the front fender. I just didn't do enough triming and hammering. All's good now - no rubbing. Thanks, TBob TBob All but SAC'ed!
