Has anyone tried to put on 285/75 17’s or about a 34” tire with just a leveling kit

Yes. Depending on your tire and wheel combination you may need a BMC and you may rub on the fender at full flex.
315s on a 2.5” lift. I also have bushwackers and BMC.
@Robert what does BMC means?
@Ricardo body mount chop. Google it or YouTube it.
@Ricardo body mount chop.
Yep my first FJ
285/70/17, didn’t need a BMC and I don’t have a lift or a leveling kit, but I understand it varies too, but 285’s can fit
Been running 285 for two summers with level kit. No issues. I’m getting rid of the leveling kit and getting a 3″-4″lift keeping the stock approach for visabibilty on the down slopes
thanks guys for the info
Lift is lift no matter how it is obtained
Starting the project today… bone stock to 3″lift, 1.5 wheel spacers, BMC, stock wheels with 285/75r17 on a 2007 4×4 FJ. I’ll let you know…
@James that’s exactly what I did to mine
@Joe pictures?
@James i did have to do a little bmc on it.
@Joe how long ago did you do the lift and run the spacers?
Nice looking rig
@James beginning of November
@Joe I’ve been told that the spacers are bad for the wheel bearings… we will see I guess…
@James i haven’t had any problems. I can see it happening if you go with a big spacer
Someone here stuffed 35s with no lift and a body mount chop on stock wheels ?
Here is a comparison 255 80 R17, 285 70 R17, 285 75 R17, 295 70 R17
What’s the first one on the left? 255?
Yes 255 the Cooper is smaller then most 255s by about a half an inch
255/70R17?
255/80/17
@David thank you
Yes fierce attitude mud tires 285/70 17 no level, no lift, no rubbing.

Yep. Stock with no leveling. When width/offset is crucial. I did a fair bit of trimming for the BMC. Welded and ground back to look stock but below are the cuts and bends I did
Your good fam!
Newbie, what’s a BMC?
Body Mount Chop! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kico0_ENOXo
