I'd like to see it fully stuffed/full lock. 35s on a street queen are easy.

Agreed

Let’s remember that it comes with nearly a 33” tire stock, moving to 35 is not the jump it once was. Given they removed so much I have no reason to believe it won’t stuff without rubbing. It would seem they found the problems and removed them. Not sure I’m willing to pull that crush/safety part personally.

Everyone is no negative and critical of a truck few have really got their hands on yet.

Plenty of people fitting 34-ish tires with no issues at stock. Assuming there's no issue under articulation that'll likely be the route most go. I like the look of the westcott collar with 35s, but throwing a cheap preload collar on a $70k truck just to turn the ride to crap hurts my soul.

 

[Corbet]

But is that preload collar just because the aftermarket has not really released much yet? I have to believe most suspension companies are working hard to build kits. I don’t plan to lift mine so I have bothered to see what’s out there currently.

A GX460 can stuff 34s and the 250/550 has a larger wheel well with a smaller scrub radius. When I saw it I wondered if it would fit skinny 37s, with a BMC. The wheel opening is significantly longer than the J150 4Runners and GX

Not a naysayer here, I plan to get a LC250 when they are available at MSRP.

There is also the issue of width of a 12.5 versus the narrow P metric sizes they come with. I run 35x12.5s on my 4runner, and to make them function while rock crawling requires extensive frame and body modification - body mount, firewall cutting/tubbing, inner fender complete removal, fender metal trimming, washer bottle removal, body lift and/or bump stop extension. The wheel wells and body mount are a bit more generous on the 250, but I'm still skeptical

Yeah, I think it's just easy to produce compared to a full suspension

Sneak peek of Westcott's build on 37s.

There is a photo of them throwing fox trd pro suspension from a tundra underneath that one. Kinda interesting

Looks like 37s fit with pretty minor modification on the tacoma and I'd guess fit is pretty similar on the 250/4R. I bet we see the new normal being 35s and a lot of 37's running around too. I think I'd want the 4Runner or GX for the larger running gear for 37s.

And thus my major grievance over the 8.2” diff in the LC250

Gents,

I am so confused. The 1st Ed comes with 18"s correct? It is the LC/LC trim that has been shipping with 20's? Also, what 17's seem to work in the LC250, Icons?



And not need for ignore buttoms, let's all use the "kindness" button and learn as we go !

EDIT: Dumb-me! LOL. Yes, 1st Ed are coming with 18"s LOL

Hopefully just the first wave of LC/LC have the 20" wheels. All the ones showing up near me now (CA) have them listed, but when I check other areas (NM for instance) the LC/LC's headed there have 18's.

Method 17s have been confirmed to fit. Albeit not with a *ton* of room.

The 20" wheels are optional on the LC Edition. It's an option most dealers probably feel they can get away with, so slap that s*** on and make the early adopters pay for it.
