    Tire Size Fitment and Lift

    I'm currently running 265/75r16 which are 31.5" in diameter and 10.5" wide, I don't have issues rubbing at full steering lock or flex. Is it possible/has anyone tried to fit skinny 33's on a stock setup? I'm thinking of something along the lines of a 255/85r16 which is 33.1" in diameter and 10"...

    Bicycle mounting solutions

    I'm currently looking for a different mounting solution for my bicycles. I have a hitch mounted Thule rack at the moment but really like the look and placement of the side mounts, however, when I looked it up myself there seems to be a lot of white noise that I'm finding hard to sift through...

    Tire Size Fitment and Lift

    I currently run 265/75/16's on a stock '18 SR5, currently thinking about trying to run 285/75 on the stock rims with no other major changes yet. Will this size fit on the rims with/out any issues? Will I rub on any plastic or suspension components? I'm willing to trim some plastic if needed...

    16x8 or similar

    Hello everyone, I just have a question. I am trying to find a 16x8" or so bead-lock rim, so far the only sizes I can find is 17" or larger. I don't really want to go any larger than 16's. Does anyone make a bead-lock rim in this size, or will I be to bite the bullet and go with a 17" rim size?
