Considering that 4Runner came with OEM optional 31X10.50 15's, I would say ballparking it at 35 X10.50 15's with no major mods, and 35X12.50 15's with fender trimming....

EDIT : You can fit these size tires and still maintain stock spacing. I'm sure much larger tires will fit.

you can fit 35x10.50's without any lift at all.. i'm pretty sure you can fit 35x12.50's with a 1" BL from 4crawler or wabfab.

Generally a 33x12.50 will fit with that lift, at least on a 15x8 wheel with decent backspacing.

I had that lift on my 95 4runner... and ran 33x12.50 TSL Bias (33.7" tall) without any issue. I had spacers on my lowpro bumpstops but they werent needed. There was adequite clearance for 35's... which I went to when I put the lift on my 92 P/U... It took firewall pinchweld beating, and the spacers on the lowpro bumpstops, back to stock height. The rear took a little trimming, but I had more clearance on the runner...

in short 35x12.50 R15 on a 15x8 with 3.75" BS, with a little beating/trimming... 33x12.50R15 on 15x8 w/ 3.75" BS with no trimming/beating...


side note... my truck is much much much better offroad with the 35's vs 33's.. so if I would consider those... as well as 5.29's (I have 4.88's and they are fine, thou 5.29's would be better)... if you ever need to run chains there is no room on 35's... but I have more than enough with my 285's I run in the winter for that reason...

I bought 33x12.50, and had no problem. Me and my buddy swapped tire and wheel combos for a week and he had 35x12.50's on a 15"rim with 3.25 spacing and had no problem, but ididnt do any wheeling, i'm guessing i would've had to trim my lower valence.

35x12.5 on a 15x8 will fit fine. Modify the fender seam (pound it flat) like everyone does and you're good to go. If you haven't purchased the lift yet, go w/ Superlift instead - much better brackets all around. Unfortunately, it doesn't come with "lateral compression struts."
