Hello, I'm wondering if anybody have experience in this setup?
Car hilux 3.0VNT year 2014 comes with 17" rims (original toyota). Current state no modification at all, no lift up, etc
Want to change to 16" rims instead and fit them with AT tyres of 265/70/16. Probably a 8jj rims.
Would the front rub the bumper?mudguard?fender?
If no, what maximum offset would be recommended?
Some say need to lift up. But I would prefer not to if possible.
TQ first for reading.
original is 265/65/ 17x7 30 offset
if you are using 16x7 30 offset then it fit perfectly
if you are using other offset and width like 8 inch you need to
1. adjust the alignment not to hit front bumper and body
2. if it still hit you probably need to cut it a little (front bumper)
3. if it still hit then you need to lift it(change to higher absorber and spring)
4. if it still hit do a bodylift (1-2")
i have done a 1.5" body lift,2" suspension lift,remove the mudguard,cut front fender and alignment forward max to the front bumper just to fit a 285/75 16"x8 0 offset.
in your case you probably need to do just 1 and 2.
