How has that lift been working out for you? I’d like to do the same set up with 285/70/17 and -12 offset...
Love the wheels!!! Those are on my very short list. Also curious what you think about the lift. I’ve been eagerly awaiting mine for a few months now.

Looks much better with the 33s for sure. You must be at 3” in the front. Even with 33s, the spacing looks massive on the front.
Great pics. Looks beautiful there.

What are you doing for your spare if I might ask? Keeping a smaller tire or 33” deflated + ratchet strap in the stock location?

i have just the stock spare. i carry around a tire repair kit for emergencies. i would like to add a tow hitch tire carrier in the future
Here’s a pic of my 4Runner with 2.5” of lift on 285/70-17s. I’m wondering why your fender spacing seems so much more evident. Knowing the lift I got on my Runner with 2.5”, I figure 3” would be perfect for a little higher lift and 34s. Is your lift in fact the 3”? Has it settled at all?

Yeah, it must have been the angle. Your truck looks amazing! I don’t see enough dirty GXs in my area at all. Nicely done. The wheels and 33s really look great. I’m trying to decide if I go up to a 315/70-17 (34.5) or just so 285/75-17s and not stress too much about fitment. The 33s do look proper there.
I’ve narrowed down my wheel search to a top 3 and the wheels you have are on the list…the other 2 are out of stock with no availability date. I can order your wheels tomorrow if I wanted but the only thing holding
me back is the weight (34 lbs each!). Did you by any chance verify the weight? 17x9 in both +1 and -12 offset weigh the same

nice! i didnt verify the weight but you are correct it states that the wheels are 34 pounds each. i do wish i went with -12 for a bit more aggressive stance but they did not have it in stock. gluck!
Thanks man! yea i would do 285 75's next. less to worry about lol.
