Perfect man... i think you're gonna love how the tires fill up the wheel well.

I'm really curious to hear about any rubbing issues you encounter w/the different offset the FJ wheels have (IIRC they're 15mm instead of the stock 25mm). This, coupled w/the bigger tires, could make things interesting...

 

It should just give me a wider stance and a more agressive look. The tire will be 10mm more toward the outside of the wheel well which should bring the tire flush with the wheel well.

As far as it being a problem, I don't think it is. I am running 305 40 22's on a 15mm offset wheel right now. If that does not rub then this should not either.

Really only one way to find out...and I will post pics when I get these on for a test fit.

 

have any of these alternate tire sizes impacted the speedometer accuracy etc?

 

Yes. Any time you change the rolling diameter of a tire you are going to affect the spedo. When I bought the 22" wheels I could have kept the same diameter tire (same revolutions per mile) but I would have had to put a 35 series tire on, and I like a little more side wall on this car. I also like how it better fills the wheel well. I knew that my spedo would be off, but I don't spend all day looking at it anyhow.

Here in Orange County we have many digital speed limit signs that have built-in rader that shows your current speed. At 45 MPH I am only off by about 1-2 MPH. At highway speeds I am sure it's closer to 5 MPH...but who cares?

 

They fit!!

Here are a few pics of the FJ Wheels on the GX...










Tires are almost the same height!



Side by Side Comparison...



So far I love the BFG's! I just can't wait for the next camping trip so that I can give them a proper testing.

Holy BIG PICS!!!

Looks awesome Chad! The offset really makes it look right.

How bout you let me borrow them 22's?

Dan

 

They are already back on the truck...but next time I take em off I will let you know...I don't mind sharing

 

where did u get the rims and how where u able to get the lexus emblems on

 

They look great on your ride. It really compliments your GX quite nicely!

 

Traded my OEM wheels with a guy I found on Craig's List...he had the emblems put on for me for $10 buck a cap.

 

Thanks! Just for snow and off road though...other wise I have the 22's on.

 

I have been on the fence about purchasing a GX but that photo of the FJ wheels and the BFGs really helped.

 

New Shoes! The emblem's a nice detail...Very Cool.
