Default FJ Cruiser off-set & Lift **Please Read**

I am considering new wheels for my FJ, but at the same time I would like to Lift the FJ to fit Nitto Terra Grappler NT325/60R18. I am just wondering if there is someone out there that can guide me on the lift I would need and the wheel off-set that I would need. I am specific to these tires only cause I have them already.

Thx

Good luck on that, we havent had any luck above a 285, after that fighting the steering vibration issue is a major headache, with the 285's we use a 15mm offset, a zero offset works & looks good but the zero causes vibration problems. The Nitto is a good choice though.

thanks for the reply,

I ended up going with 285's and loved how they turned out.

Dude, I LOVE your wheels. They look simply stunning on that black FJ Cruiser. Very nice choice there T3Mike.

I wonder if I could get them for my Tundra.

Thanks man!

It was a gamble if they would fit or not I had to have the bore change to 106.5 from 79 or somthing, to fit on the FJ and they fit like a glove.

Anyone here considered to use the Cro Comp 5-6 in Tacoma lift for the FJ Cruiser. They seem to use a lot of the same parts in these cars. The main thing here is the front end. No problem dealing with the rear differently........
