How drop to r17? (2 Viewers)

I run 265/70R17 Michelin Defender LTX on these TRD rims with no trimming, heat gun, or rubbing.
The spare DOES go in, but you have to put one side up into the spare area first.

Speaking of over sized spares, I wonder if the new GX's and LC's have allowed room for over sized spare tires since they're pressing the "off road" abilities and when you do that, of course folks are going to want larger tires. Maybe I'll poke my nose in the GX550 forum and ask.

Spare Tire Fitment Thread

Lets start place to post max size spare tire fitments. Many of us will want to max out tire size and still get a matching spare in the OEM location. If you have upsized your spare please post up the specs. Tire size and make/model as we all know they vary. Spec of the wheel as width can...

Maybe talked about elsewhere as well, but they started a dedicated one haha.

I am surprised the OP had difficulty sourcing used wheels/tires from LA. I buy/sell secondhand wheels all the time and have never had a problem - you can usually find stuff way cheaper and in great condition through marketplace.
