i have +35s on my OT and i still wish they were a little bit more tucked in
I have a 8 +30 or +38 spec, a lot more conservative.

Anybody with a stock ‘24 running 35x12.5x17s?? I know they’ll fit on a ‘25 no rub

Out of curiosity, how does a 24 with a Westcott lift require trimming/removal to fit this size and a 25 does not require anything to fit? Is the offset +35 or more?
 
Hello nonamex I do not have a lift on mine so I say logically to me the '25 has a 1" lift over the '24. And call Westcott for tech advice on the wheel and tire limits they have found on installations. I am going to try 34" tires because the wheelwells look too open with the 32.5 stock look.
I read a post on here that cautioned us about using too wide tires. that can be the problem just as much as the height. I have +35 wheels on mine now and I am thinking that 295/70/18 or 295/75/18 might be the ticket. 35's look fantastic but it leaves little room for the suspension movement or snow and mud build up. ?? Post up what you find out.
 
After fitting 285/75R17 Toyo tires on +20 offset, I'm not too keen on wide tires any longer. My next set will be 255/85R17. These tires will move them inward which is about the equivalent of +35 offset.

That looks like a good combo. One note: the 85 aspect ratio is a really strong tire prob have to run some lower air pressure without a load. thanks for info.

Having a constant load won’t be a problem for me. I’m actually preparing to change the rear springs to Dobinsons 821V from Icon Dual to accommodate a heavier rear constant load.

The Mickeys 255 will be next after the Toyos wear out.
 
Mickeys for me also. need to get a few miles out of the stockers. New springs........sounds interesting. Maintain the ride height with more flex?
You say heavier load is that trailering?

Do you have pics? I might be doing the same exact offset and tire size. I have a stock 25 OT. Do you think itll fit?

Also, which toyo tires did you find? I assuming you went C load?
 
It's what I do. I have new and used sets available.

Hope you don't take it the wrong way lol
You should become a Supporting Vendor if you have an official business selling wheels and tires. There are too many scammers these days for us to allow sales from unvetted sellers. I will send you a PM now.
