So the metal tab is enough to keep the liner in place? Do I need to remove the tires to do this?

No, I don’t know how to test that without getting airborne
the rear track width is slightly more inboard than the front though so I expect they’ll barely squeak by.
I did the math based on teckis300 theoretically being able to double stuff 35x12.50r17 at 35 offset with fender rolling…I’m 20mm (3/4”) further outboard than him w my 15 offset wheels, but at 10.50” tire, I’m 25mm (1”) narrower on the outside of the tire…so I “guessed” that sans fender rolling I should be alright with about a 1/4” wiggle room…
Considering under full front compression, the tire, like teckis300’s, gets past the front fender and rubs the upper fender liner, I’m likely in the ballpark of where he is clearance wise.
I’ll try to remember to put it in low mode so I can get a picture of how close the outside of the tire is to the fender in the rear.
Rolling the fenders is on my list of things to do…I would like to run 285 75 r17 next time so I can use the normal spare tire spot next time I get tires…I expect, based on teckis300’s experience fitting 35x12.70r17 (317 70 r17) at 35 offset with aggresively rolled fenders that it may fit 285 75 r17 for a double stuff at 15 offset.
I would be, theoretically, moving from a 266x83r17 (35x10.50r17) to 285x75r17…adding 19mm total width (9.5mm on the outside of the tire)…based on teckis300 math, I’m moving 20mm outboards but removing 15mm of tire on the outside…so if teckis300 thinks there’s 5mm more of wiggle room based on his fender rolling than what he’s currently got, it would work with 285 75 r17 at 15 offfset and aggressively rolled fenders. .
If not, then I stick w the 35x10.50r17…which is fine. They look great, are cheap, have good road manners…the only downside is the swing away…which isn’t the worst thing I suppose-I already have a permanently mounted Wilco hitch carrier there. The tire just adds a bit of weight and complexity to lowering or raising it.

Love the bumper. Any pics from head on?
Thank you but, no, nothing head on yet. We’re not quite done building it.

I saw this on IG. Bad ass! I love the bumper and was zooming in trying to get an idea of what it really looks like. Very promisingThanksNo, nothing head on yet. We’re not quite done building it.
She's big. I love it.

Is this the Gloss Titanium color for the wheels? I've been looking at 703 or ICON Vector 5, but I these pics have sold me on the Methods.Figured I’d add! New to me 2015 (42k miles) LX. Came from a GX. Love this truck! Just added 285/70/17 KO2 and Method 703 (+35mm). Let the mods begin!

Love love love these wheels, although I never considered a wheel from that series. Hmmm. What other mods have you done and do you have any rubbing issues?

Looks great. As soon as my current shoes wear out, these are the wheels I've been considering. You may be helping to speed up the process.
Any pics in normal mode with the 35's?

stance looks awesome. Great looking rig
This may be the wrong spot to ask, so I’ll delete if so.
Has anyone fitted the @sleeoffroad Lc200 front bumper to a Lx570, specifically a 2016+ ?

These just arrived. Got the LC rockers in pearl white to match my rig. Color is a little off but nobody will know except me and my OCD.
Haven't seen it. Would love to see it though!
I second that! Am deciding between a Dissent and CBI for my 2017 LX, so this is good timing if someone else is doing the Slee on a 2016+
Dissent is what I had planned to order... but open winch access on the Slee is where it's at.
