The prinsu style roof rack makes LC250 and GX550 look like a hearse. I am thinking the old styke rhino rack or front runner would make a comeback for these model.

I don't see that. I'm assuming it will be a Prinsu or similar for me.
 
I really need one if you guys to step up and tell me whether a 285/75/18 will fit in the wheel well or not - time is ticking!! 😁
I could have mine in a month and it would be really nice to have the dealer install that tire from the get go.
Right now, my plan is to play it safe and have 275/75/17s installed at delivery, but I really feel like the next size up might fit.

That’s not an ideal plan. It’s much better to become familiar with the vehicle in its stock form before changing anything. Then you’ll have a reference to compare against with future upgrades.
 
It has begun.

For anyone curious, Icon replied to me that these wheels are 18x9 with +40mm offset.
 
Was just looking at a first edition at the dealership today. Took a few photos of the spare. Looks like there is plenty of room side to side, but front to back might be tougher. There is a bracket that might make it tough to carry a larger spare. Maybe easy to modify? I couldn't tell what it was.

Beautiful truck in person. Unfortunately they wouldn't unlock it so I could look inside. Guess I wouldn't want a bunch of people climbing around in mine.

What size tires did it have? 245/70/18?

It looks like Toyota added that bracket to keep the spare off the panhard rod. I imagine a lot of people are going to cut that thing off immediately. Since there is zero space in the back the real question is how much space is there between the tire and the panhard rod.
 
Picking up a loaded land cruiser trim with the not-so-ideal 20" wheels in a few weeks.
Anyone planning (or already swapped in) a more aggressive tire, either in the stock 265/60/20 or size up to 275/60/20?
Trying to avoid being the first!

The 20" wheel thing pisses me off. Personally, I would get some 18" wheels and then sell the 20" wheels and tires to someone who wants them. But that's just me.
 
Wescott Designs just put a collar lift on an OT 550 and put on 35x12.50 but also stated that after a road drive it didn't rub but hadn't full cycled the suspension either.

Some dealers will give you credit for them if make arrangements for new ones before you drive off the lot.
