I love these 35s!
Slight rub when going fast around a corner and hitting a bump but that’s it. Gotta trim it and I’m good.

Those tires look great. I’d rather not go to 3” if I don’t need to. I prefer the low meaty stance since height don’t add ground clearance. I want to get the titles while discount tire is running Black Friday sale. Then either Ironman or a eibach lift.
What wheel size and offset are you running? I am trying to bring this to a close hopefully this week so that I can order the lift,tires,wheels and git r dun!
SCS F5 wheels at 17x8.5 -10 offset.
Perfect. I was looking at 17x9 with either 0 or -12 offset. And definitely upper control arms.
That will work. I would try and stick with that range offset nothing more nothing less or youll start having serious rubbing issues

You generally want to go with the narrowest rim width that's recommended by the tire manufacturer. That is if you truly plan on offroading your rig.
A narrower rim will help keep the tire bead on the rim when you air down.

More cutting. Removed like 5-6” off the rear bumper haha.
Also if anyone that’s afraid their GX will be gutless with 35s, I have installed a throttle controller and got all my “power” back.

I just successfully installed 35s with 17x8.5 RRW wheels, 3” Dobinson lift kit, SPC upper control arms, BMC, and pan hard bar. Trimming of the front bumper, side steps, and wheel liners was required.
Looks nice! I’m shocked you’re still able to retain the factory side steps
Damn it guys.... I am about to pull a trigger on 285/70/17 with my SCS wheels with -10 offset... but 315 really looks great.... currently I am stock wheels with 265/18 AT... it does look small after the lift. Plan to install sliders & skids + some bumpers chop.
Another good option is 285/75r17 which is a 34x11.5
I know! I plan on installing my sliders and bumpers after the holiday.Looks nice! I’m shocked you’re still able to retain the factory side steps

For a fact, just had the BFG M/T's 285/75R17's and with a BMC and lift, I had full lock-to-lock, and full compression at all 4 corners. They fit great!
The 315's (35") have now do rub just a wee bit and that's after tearing out the wheel well liners and pounding the pinch weld. Over the holidays I'm going to look into that a little more and see where it's rubbing and see if I can address it.
What is the general highway mileage with 35s with no regear? Trying to figure that out since the car is a dd and doing overlabd trips, gas mileage was one of the main reasons I got a gx460 over an older lx570

I know you specified "no regear", but my mileage anyways is almost 14.7 MPG on a road trip last month. That is the calculated MPG with a 1.128 (tire size difference) multiplier with my dash display mileage.
Albeit, I do have front and rear lockers with regear. I did get better mileage with my 285/75R17's.
