Not bad for $13, thanks to those who suggested it, I love it.
This is the JSCARLIFE Car Center Console Organizer Tray, Armrest Box Secondary Storage Compatible for 2008-2017 Toyota Land Cruiser, correct?

It was labeled "Salusy Car Center Console Armrest Box Glove Box Secondary Storage For Toyota Land Cruiser 2008-2019" haha. I'll be damned if that isn't a mouthful and the most ridiculous title for a simple product on Amazon that I have ever seen.

I ordered a set of five (5) 275/70/18 BFG KO2's today, they should be in later this week and hopefully I can find some time next week to get them installed. I plan to run around for a few weeks or more with them on the truck stock but I might be adding that Bilstein kit sooner than I had planned.

I had a pair of these made for the LC key fobs, $20 shipped for the pair from "China" in under 10 days. Not a fan of sending my money over there but the seller made them at my request so I've gotta take the wins when and where I can lol. The color is similar to the Terra interior which momma requested over the typical black leather covers.

A big shout out to @Brendan for working a deal with me to get a new hatch light in trade for the grey one we had installed in the LX a few years back. Just as useful and OEM looking as the last one and now in black plastic to match the LC interior. Such a simple mod but I absolutely love it.

Best mod!
I have been running 275/70/18 BFG KO's for several thousand miles now, and I am still surprised how good they ride on the highway. Also been great on ranch roads and no rubbing so far. Hope you enjoy them as well.

275/70/18 BFG KO2's went on this morning. Stock suspension, all mud flaps and plastic still intact and zero rubbing full lock to full lock on flat ground. I have yet to test step inclines/angles but I am happy knowing that nothing is needed to keep them clear for regular daily driving. Maybe it's the many years of driving on load range E tires, but I think that it handles and rides better now. The truck feels like it has a better base and the hard edge hits are only slightly more noticeable. They aren't much louder than the stock rubber at highway speeds IMHO but I am sure that will change as they wear/age. They look like just enough tire for a stock 200 without looking stuffed or in need of a lift, even though I am highly considering one now lol. Momma is very happy with the look and feels it should have come that way from the factory, I agree.
Aggressive sidewalls just make any vehicle look better. I'm trying to convince my wife to let me put K02s on her Subaru.

Did you get normal KO2 or the “Different Tread” KO2 in that size?
Drive in a circle (max turn) on each side and check your KDSS bar in front...any rubbing?
Hey, if no rubbing, then hey that could be my next tire!! According BFG website, 275/70 adds only 2.4 lbs/tire vs. stock sized KO2. Tread width difference (from stock sized KO2) is only 0.5” narrower. And you gained almost 1” of extra clearance!

Yea zero touching on the UCA or KDSS sway bar at any point. The tires are 0.39" narrower than stock but I actually like that, I ran pizza cutters (33x10.50) on our 80 and I have always been a fan of the tall and narrow look. These are 1.7" taller than stock rubber which is a nice little bump. At freeway speeds on the way home (80 miles) I only dropped 0.7 mpg versus stock when hand calculated for the size difference, I can live with that. I am considering running wheels spacers and throwing on the adjustable Bilstein lift just to give it a little bump in the looks department but I am very pleased with the stance and ride at the moment.
Did u change spare tire too?
Can you shoot a picture straight on to see the width difference?
Have a link to where ordered from?I had a pair of these made for the LC key fobs, $20 shipped for the pair from "China" in under 10 days.

Not sure if this angle shows you anything but it's what I snapped today while out running around. I can take others if you give me some direction on what it is you want to see.
