I am picking up my new FJ62 tomorrow and i plan on putting some black crawlers with 33 x 10.5 on it...the issue i think i might have is that the backspacing of the rims is 2.75 so they will stick out a lil' bit more and my question is with a rim sticking out .75 then normal with 33 x 10.5 will it rub? I don't plan on wheeling until i atleast get a shackle lift. Will i be ok with this set up?

Thanks and i'll post pics when the new setup is on it.
 
I ran 33/10.5 on stock rims with no problem. With 2.75bs that will probably rub. Long shackles will fix this, but they hang so darn low, I ended up smacking them all the time. Stick with stock rims until you can do a full suspension. You 62 has 4.10 gears and you will find the gears to be quite nice. You can stuff the rear tire into the wheel wheels with stock rims, but only under max flex and the rub is minor.
