16inch OEM Toyota Wheels with 285’s
Nice rig! I'm rolling with the unique 297's on an 84 FJ60. I'm looking at the 16x7" wide with 4" BS. Are these rims 8" rims or 7" Did you have any fitment issues? I've been getting mixed signals on fitment with these rims.

Hi, long time... Nice ride!! But how did you like the setup? What tire is it? Do you feel it's less stable with such a wide your on the 16x7 steelies?
I like the setup. Ride and handling is great. I added 4 degree caster shims in the front and a rear sway bar from a 62 which increased the road stability. It wasn’t bad without the sway bar, but it is better with it. Current tires are BFG all terrains. No fitment issues or rubbing. Upgraded to 4:10 gearing

255/85-16 on a 16x 70 series wheel.

I love it!!
Happy with the Toyo in 255?
I've been missing the days of the same setup 255 on my 61, but I had bfg km2. Wrecked 2 tires, and went with KO2 in 33x10.5r15... measured them, since they looked small. And yeah, they're not 33, they're barely 31.5 tall.
But only tire I can get here in 255 is km3. Suuper pricy, so definitely considering a different tire in 255.
I can get the 285 Toyo mt for a decent price...might do that, as they're closer to 33" at least, which is minimum for my type of trails.
I had a bad pull to the right on a new set of tires. Ended up being one bad tire that I’ll get warrantied out.
They are quiet, they drive really comfy for an E rated tire, the tread depth is the highest in class and they look great. My second choice would be the Yokohama G003, and third would be the km3. A curve ball for me would be the km3 in 7.50r16.
If i was in the rest of the world I’d have a set of Michelin xzl on my truck, but those are super hard to find.
My 33” k02 were 31.25” tall. I definitely felt the change in gearing with these Toyo at 32.75” measured.

Looking forward to reach the end of the world
I run 255/85 Toyo MT w/70 serie wheel (same HemiAlex) on my 60 for the last 22 000 miles / 35 000km. 7/32 now which is not a lot of thread left for the milleage. These are however excellent tires.
I'm a huge fan of skinny tire but a had a killer deal on Cooper AT3 XLT in 285/75. I will install them after the COVID crisis! I'll post picture later.
285/75 R16 BFG KO2 on Dynamic 'Soft 8' 16x8 -22 steel wheels on my HJ61.
Dynamic are an Australian wheel manufacturer, unsure whether they're actually manufactured in Australia but quality is certainly better than some of the garbage you see out there.
Here in NZ we deal with 'offset' rather than 'backspacing'. From my limited research into the difference between the two, it appears my -22(mm) offset would be a 3.63" 'backspace'. Obviously this directly related to the wheel width, so when you guys are talking about a 3.5" 'backspace' on your stock wheels at 7"wide, that is equivalent to a -12 'offset'.
I find it interesting that as whole, the American cruiser scene seems to prefer taller, narrower tyres and a narrower, less aggressive wheel to what we tend to see here in NZ and even Australia. I have incredibly sagged rear leafs and experience zero rubbing on compression, further more I have no issues with the front tyre scrubbing on full lock.
Anyway, pics or it didn't happen chuur

Same wheel size and type on mine with 285/75 GY Duratracs....I dig it.
I am loving the look of the 287/75 17 tyre / wheel package on the Sandy 60!!

Whoa whoa, before more disinformation is sent out, the 70 series wheel is NOT 16x7. A wheel is measured bead seat to bead seat. The wheel is a 16x6. Measuring edge to edge is incorrect for wheels.
Sounds good! And that's the OEM 16x7 wheel? Please post more pictures from different angles, seeing how your sits in the wheel well

Exactly my understanding. Please see very informative diagram courtesy of Wheel Specs | Wheel Specialists, Inc..
my mistake. I misprinted that.

No worries, I saw a little trend, didn't want people getting the wrong idea.
