Pretty sure they're same as most factory +60mm.

Just installed some new wheels and tires over the weekend. Went with a 295/70/17 M/T. Based on my search on here, doesn't seem to be a popular size. In fact, I think I found only 2 other people on here who are running this size.
Wheels:
Method 313 17" x 8.5"
+25mm offset
23.5lbs each
Tires:
General Grabber X3 295/70/17
Overall diameter 33.3"
Section width 11.8"
Bought this size knowing I had to do some trimming. The level of trimming was semi involved if you don't mind getting wild with a dremel tool. Doing a similar modification that I had previously done of my 5th gen 4Runner, I was able to move the front liner forward about 1.5" or so. Combined with some trimming of the inner wheel well (lower mudflap?), theres a mile of clearance up front. It get's tricky towards the back. Spent some time with the dremel and a heat gun and I have some solid clearance back there that will hopefully increase once I get realigned with some additional caster.
HI mode:
NORMAL mode:
Some of the trimming involved. Sideskirt bracket was bent back, redrilled a new hole and added a longer bolt to pull in this area of the sideskirt. Liner needs to be heated and formed as well, which I performed after taking this photo.
Front fender liner modified:

Wow. Badass.
That looks so good. Really like the shortie roof rack, too.
I'm looking to running this same set up, how much drama is "without much drama"? lol
Depends on your setup. I’m running them on my LX. Came from a 275/70/18. 20mm spacers and had to do some minor trimming on rocker panel plastic inside wheel well.
If anyone has a line on some black method 703's, 17" with the 35mm offest, let me know. Most places seem out of stock.

Tire rack and discount tires showed them in stock last week. I was considering this wheel but decided to go a different route. Let us know your impressions if you get them.
Will do. I am in the predicament of getting matching wheels/tires for my trailer. Right now I have 5 Rock Warriors, but getting more of those is a major pain in the ass. SO I am thinking of getting the 703's for the trailer and eventually finding a buyer for my Rock Warriors (which should be easy) and switch over the Cruiser.

The MR703’s 8.5x17 with the 35mm offset seem like the perfect fit for the cruiser. If I had’nt recently bought new 18” tires I would have got these. One thing to keep in mind is that the newer LCs with the larger brakes can run into figment issues with some of the 17” method wheels. I know of one case where the balancing weights were causing rub issues. The shop had to rebalance the wheels and Ultimately moved the weights to a different location on the wheel to get it to work on a 2017 LC. Not an ideal solution.

From my understanding they Will only install the stock/OEM Size. You could try asking them if you could drop off the wheels and have them install tires without the car there but I don’t think they will do that or warranty the tires. This Was the reason I ended up not using them for my new tires.

I had the Costco near me install KM3s and they never said a thing about not being stock size or anything

Can you please confirm if there is no rubbing full lock to full lock? Contemplating on a set these or a set of Falken Wildpeak AT3W.
I am running Icon HD Rebounds in Titanium with MTR Kevlar 315/70/17 with just a little massaging of the inner fenders and mud flaps
Yes that’s the one.
Gaijin, can you tell me the RCTIP for Toyo AT3 in LT285/65/R18 125/122S E on a Land Cruiser please?
Thank you.
