32x12.5's on 15x10 inch wheels??

I have a chance to get some brand new 15x10 white spoke wheels for $100. Here is a picture of them....


I can also get a set of 32x12.5's ProComp Mud Terrain tires with 60% tread left for $350 obo. One of them is brand new because it was a spare. Supposedly there is some cupping because of lack of rotating. Here is a picture of those....


Will I be able to put these on my truck without any mods suspension wise? I have the new Crawler 261 cam, brand new head, and refreshed engine so I think I have enough power to move these tires. What do you guys think?

Picture of my rig....

you will rub, especially with the width of the rim, i have 32s but on 15x8s and they rubed when backing in and out of drive ways pretty bad. nothing a mild lift didnt fix. and you could get away with beating at some stuff and get them to work. they will fit but they will rub. there are also alot of threads on there like that so search those for some more info.

Would a 3 inch body lift cure that problem?

Probably would not need a full 3" lift to fit those, depending on the wheel backspacing:

I am running 31x10.50R15 Dunlop Mud Rovers on 15x8 alloy wheels with 2" suspension and 2" body

BTW, since 4crawler replied here I might as well mention the 2" suspension lift was made by him =) Hey man the balljoint spacers and shackles are workn great! =)

The fronts rub on the back lower portion of the fender (with only a 2" body lift), well not anymore since the tires have punched the bottom innner portion of the fender up to where they clear now, LOL.

So even with 2" of lift 31's rubbed on the front.

My avatar shows my truck with a 2" body lift and the 31x10.5's. FYI

This is ofcourse without any fender cutting etc. The rears clear fine.


$350 for those tires seems like a rip off to me, especially if theirs cupping. Cupping causes really crappy vibrations and noise, this is from my experience with some 30" marshall mud terrains when i bought my truck a few years ago. You can really feel it at low speeds to, feels like your driving on gravel. =)

Also buying used tires from someone who really doesnt know how to care for a tire (which is pretty damn easy) would make me nervous. I'd buy one of those for a spare man.

4wheelparts.com offers buy 3 get one 1 free pro comp specials ALL THE TIME, like most of the year, for awhile i thought it was just for granted. The 32x11.5R15 pro comp mud terrain @ 4wheel parts is $156.99 right now without the special but itll be back im sure, they really push those pro comps hard at 4wheel parts.

even @ that price with the 3 get on 1 special $470 for NEW pro comp muds is better deal than $350 for 4 tires with irregular ware on all of them. IMO.

I personally wouldnt go bigger than 31x10.5's on stock 'yota.

I am actually now looking for something different. I found some nice 15x8 wheels locally for $100. I am waiting on some pics of those. Then, I am going to wait for some 31x10.50's. That is what I wanted in the first place so I will wait for those.
