New 100 Series owner with a question (tire rub, one side) (1 Viewer)

Heres a video on what I did to fit my 18" methods on 275/70/18.

So it did rub when turning the wheel side to side.

Do you think those stock newer 18 land cruiser wheels with my ko2s 275 70 18s will work without cutting anything up?
 
I used to have the tundra 18" wheels (no spacers) and those did not rubbed.

But once I got the method had to do the modifications. I think it's because most aftermarket wheels are 8.5 - 9 width and that make it rub when turning.

I just found a set of tundra 18" steel wheels, the five spoke style for $100 with caps. I am going to get them on Tuesday and have them powder coated or just paint them and swap my tires over. When these wear out I'll get some new wheels.
 
Personally, I'd just run what you have. Do pinch weld mod.

200 series wheels require a spacer…. Plenty of info in the thread about 200 series wheels on a 100.
Where is that thread? I can’t find it.

THANK YOU! My search skills were failing me.
 
I had an alignment done yesterday, they got the caster over 3 on both sides. Still rubs a little bit on the passenger side, but drives a lot better.

I also found out my drive flanges have play in front. Is it possible the axles are fine and I only need new plates? There isn't a ton of play, but enough to wiggle the axle by hand and see/feel it.

The parking brake, the bell cranks I can move by hand, so it seems to be in the cable.
