295/65/R18's on a GX470???

Anyone have these tires on a GX? If so, what lift are you using?
Thinking of going with some FN BFD 18" 9" with 0 offset. Doable?

I haven't. It would look great on road, but would you get enough flex out of the sidewall off road?

GOOOD Question! I WOULD be using the GX off road.

Well its not like your going to get anything larger than a 33" in there without some trimming or more so I would not sweat it. Yes, more sidewall would be better but it kind of is what it is.

Personally I'd probably run 285/70r17's but that extra 1/2" of sidewall is not going to make or break you in the real world.

I haven't seen anyone w/ a GX running an 18" 33 diameter tire. Most w/ 33s go w/ 285/70/17.

I run 285/70R17s...they barely fit.

Yes, I guess this is the most practical way to go.

Thank you all for the replies.

What have you had to do to get those on? I'm guessing at least a mild lift?

Look at my build...I did a lot more than a lift!
