My brother got some new rims, Bask in their magnificence.(A lso a comparison photo aft er the jump)

Kinja'd!!! Kinja'd!!! Kinja'd!!!

Trd Fj Cruiser 16" rims, 1.5" lift using a spacer for the front and an Ad-a-Leaf in the rear, 265/75 tire instead of the stock 245/75 and it’s a pr erunner so no 4x4 but its got the skidplate swapped over (far more important anyways ).

If it's worse gas mileage and turning radius you seek, it is worse mileage and turning radius you shall have!

Nice. Fjc wheels also have better offset worth about half an inch of poke. What tire did he pick? Spacers  and aal work fine for a prerunner.. dat skidplate tho..

The stock offset could be worse bit is really not good, I believe +55? I'm guessing these are +35, the tires are BackCountry Sq4's

Meh, gas mileage won't be good no matter what at least it will look good. Turning radius has nothing to do with tire size.

I run fjc Steelers in the winter. They look better ‘down the side’ even with the 255/70 blizzacks I have.

17 not small- skinny..

I like his canopy without windows - good security but our doggo  would not go for that.

It does have one small haphazardly installed window on the rh side , and a roof vent that opens with a fan. But still not particularly dog approved.

I like it. Someday, maybe, I’ll replace the stock sport wheels on mine.

My F150 with 31's that have scrubbed some rust off the frame would disagree with that last statement.

Unle ss the suspension geometry changes or the tire stops on the frame explain how tire size will change ones turning circle

Its storage, the shell is basically a house so you can imagine space is limited.

The oversized tire is hitting the frame, preventing it from turning all the way, which I assume is what Sovande was referr ing to. It’s not an issue for me, but 31's aren’t that big  either.

I’m definitely not complaining, but I won’t be that surprised when it finally  crashes.
