TRD ORP Heritage Blue - 35s MT Baja Boss A/T 255/85/R17 Pizza Cutter Build +30mm Offset - Matte PPF - Aftermarket Grille

[Van Solo]

Hey Van thanks for your question and points. I’ll try my best to tackle them point by point.

1. The width will be reduced by half an inch and height increased by 2 inches. The real problem I might have is in the increase in scrub radius. But in terms of safety, these tires will provide better load bearing capacity than OEM falkens.

The pizza cutters are known to have better performance in snow than their wider counterparts.

2. Speedometer isn’t much of an issue, something that we will learn to adapt too

3. Narrower tires with lower psi actually offer more grip. And going through the snow in MB I think I will gain an edge. Not lose it

4. As for aesthetics, I don’t mind it at all

5. As for potential for increased wear, I’ve “offset” that as best as I could with the +30mm offset while increasing 2” in height. The narrow tires will mean I will be doing less wheel well modifications to fit 34.5” tires

Alright then Brother you got it sorted,

Thanks for looking out for me. I do appreciate it.

The stormtrooper build is the hottest in Canada

Installed the tires and rims, slight rub on mudguards. Getting alignment tomorrow.

Looks awesome! I'm also in Winnipeg (Blue ORP). I asked about some tire details in another post but curious if the no rubbing (small trim to rear) was with your lift you have now or before?

lovely! I think I’ve seen you on the roads or my wife has at least. Seems there’s a few of us.

I got rubbing, on the flaps only, even with the lift. Without the lift would have been the same. As I understand, rubbing has more to do with offset and tire dimensions than it has to do with lift. Hope this helps
