Bigger Tires?

I lifted the rear end of my 4runner with coils 1.5" and i cranked my t-bars in the front to even the truck up. I have 31's right now and i'de like to bump up a bit. I don't want to lift the truck anymore however. I want to put a set of bfg at's 32x11.50x15.. Anyone know if this can be done without the tires rubbing

thanks chris

You're right, but it's gotta be 2nd gen (90-95) w/coil spring rear and torsion bar front.


I'm planning on going to 32x11.5x15, with the same setup, downey 1.5" HD springs should arrive today, then mess with t-bar, then when time/money allows 32's. From what I've been reading I "should" be OK, w/out rubbing, but open to any more advice/opinions.

krazxyglue, i've got a '95 runner thats not lifted at all and i just put on 32x11.5x15 and they barely rub at all. only with the wheel just about locked out and backing up does it rub at all. you should be fine with the 1.5 in the back and the t-bars cranked.

Do you ahve stock wheels? I have 32x11.50's on right now with stock wheels. I have running boards (not OEM Toyota ones) and had to modify them so they wouldnt rub, but from the looks of the OEM Toyota running boards, they shouldnt rub there. Mine rub only on the fender liner that covers the gap between the body and the frame and keeps dirt out of the engine bay, so nowhere big.

You'll be good. I ran 32x10.50 Super Swampers on my junk with no lift at all. They're skinnier than what you're looking at, but they're also a bit taller. You won't have problems.
