hey, as of right now my 96 2wd v6 runner is lifted in the front about 2.5". the rear lift is on the way (2.5 as well).

anyways, i got 15" American racing chamber wheels with 3 3/4 backspace and -19 offset. i want to get some tires put on today hopefully and wondering if 32's will fit (looking to get either BFG M/T or Wranglers M/T's). i did some searching and saw that 265/75/16 will fit stock 3rd gen 4runners, compare that to 285/75/15, the 285 is just a tad bigger in diameter by .2, and 3/4 bigger in width.

so being its just a TAD bigger, i currently run 31x10.50x15 and the tire looks skinny, being with the new wheels and backspace/offset should i be fine running the 285/75/15? im talking about it fitting with the front lifted and back stock. here are some pics maybe it can help.

Id go for 32x11.50x15 for sure... I know 285/75/16 is that in the 16 rim, but, not sure what 285/75/15 turns out to be.

Wouldn't it be metric so something like 33X11.5x15???

I have never seen a 285/75-15 before, but it would be 32x11.5-15 equivalent. BFG and Goodyear both make the 32x11.5-15.

oops my mistake i mean 32x11.50/15...the 15 dont have 285, its just 32. but i think im gonna hold off on the tires til after i lift the rear. im gonna put on the AR chamber wheels in a few days on the current tires to see how much the new wheels will stick out to know how they fit. but probably will go for the 32's, if i do go for 31's again, deffinately be a little wider.

anyone know a good place to get some BFG M/T in LA area? i read on some forums people get them for 600-650 at tire places, lowest ive seen is about 750 here.

will the 15's clear the brakes?
