Big tires

[e9bud]

I have a 2004 Lexus Gx 470 with a 2”.OME lift. Trying to put 285x70x17 BFGs and they hit the front fender which I can trim, but the back of the front tire hits the frame. Any suggestions.

What offset wheels? Too much negative is guarantee rub and would need Body Mount Chop.
Ask your alignment tech to maximize caster from LCA.
Do not trim the front of the fender liner, especially the passenger side. Engine intake is right above it and can easily got water with cut fender liner. Move it forward by relocating some holes and reshape it using heat gun.

Thanks. I have “ 0” offset and unfortunately I did cut away some fender well so I’ll rebuild with rubber. I will do the alignment. Can most places do that or does it need to be like a 4Wheel Parts or Off Road Warehouse?

285s are a lot of hassle. Next time consider 265s.

4x4 specialist that works on a lot of Toyotas would be preferable. They would be more familiar with they technique to get it aligned properly.
