4th Gen Get's Some BFG KM3's and New VTX Wheels!!!

[@MadDogSouthHouse]

I have an 05 4runner with a 3 inch lift and BFG k02’s 275/70/17. Not the most aggressive setup but I can agree even with the v6 which I have the engine doesn’t struggle at all. Seriously my favorite car I’ve owned yet.

[@lIlIllll1]

any trimming for 275/70/17?

[@russellwebb3523]

Love the look man. I would stick with the Black on Black. Looks amazing 👏

[@TRDJon]

It is growing on me too! Thanks man!!

[@patrickdakis4437]

Looks like an undercover police vehicle blacked out. Awesome. You should collab w/Untamed Motors!

[@TRDJon]

That would be cool! No sure where he is based out of, but that would be awesome.

[@codenamearmada6414]

I’m one of those people who are working on building up a 4Runner but am too broke to really do it, I bought an 03 4Runner for $1900 and 139k miles on it but it sat abandoned for 6 months before I bought it, I bought it and am building it in honor of my grandfather

[@TRDJon]

That’s an amazing price and even better thing to do with your grandpa! Cherish those moments !

[@codenamearmada6414]

@@TRDJon I wish I could, he passed away in 2015 from lung cancer, it’s in memory of him

Thank you!! Can’t wait to share more!!!

[@zoeyharvey3475]

With 295's at 75MPH you were actually doing closer to 81MPH lol. You have to adjust for rotation of the bigger wheel. I am running 295/70/17 on my V6 4runner with Bilstein.

I went with 285/70/17 AT Trimmed 2" off the wheel well.I am running 0 offset . love the handling.

Wow, looks really nice, can't wait to see what you have in store next! 👍👍👍

[@TRDJon]

Got a Prinsu rack coming, full bumper, tire swing, and other goodies :)

[@Robert8455]

I'm guessing this setup added 80 lbs, mpgs took a 3 mpg hit, braking distance increased and acceleration slowed and oh yeah the noise. I'm not gonna lie, I like the rugged look though. By the time you finish your build with bumpers, racks, tent, fridge, battery, and other accessories its gonna be one heavy beast. I'd love to see you hit the scales with it loaded for a weekend aventure.

[@jonathanclarke1884]

4runner looks good thats a lot of freckles

[@KIKIN0023]

Just got the yotamafia bilstein lift not to long ago. Will be installing them soon but I'm Just wondering what setting did you put on your spc upper control arms? Please and thanks love the rig.

[@boudoiralamode4508]

Awesome runner! Looks similar to my last 2006, but it was white. Cool video. Thanks.

[@TRDJon]

Thanks for watching!

[@regmatt]

love those tires , beefed up 4 runner !!!!!

[@TRDJon]

Beefed it up for sure!!

[@StubProductions]

The larger tires will make the engine run at a slower RPM not faster RPM. Your speed is different before and after. So you have to calculate actual speed.

[@TrailRunn4r]

Note on the speed/rpm comparison. When doing calculations you might need to account for the overall difference of the tire.

[@TRDJon]

I need to gps test to see how off we actually are

[@jeff9104]

Very Nice !.....I said it before, I like the wining noise because it reminds me that I should be doing something Off-Road

[@TRDJon]

That’s the best way to put it!!! Never thought of that

[@JC-pr5nh]

I was looking at these last night, wasn't sure they looked good till I saw them on your t4r

[@Twistedoff2]

Did you install the SPC upper control arms? How did you set them up before the alignments were done? Nice build.

[@p.k.808]

Looks great brother!!. I am right behind you. Getting my 5th Gen lifted and upgrading tires this week.

[@TRDJon]

Gonna look so good!

[@bruceclark406]

Any rubbing? Also, are you concerned about how close the mud flap is to the back tire 2:16?

[@TRDJon]

Alot!! Yes I will be taking it off and trimming alot up front.

[@corradettimotorsports360]

you hit it out of the Park buddy!!! looks are amazing and those wheel and tires really set off the look!

Man that looks sick the black is perfect ... love the v8 4th gen

[@TRDJon]

Good lord it looks so perfect. The 4th gen in appearance is my least favorite 4runner gen but when you mod them up, they look just as good as anything.

[@TRDJon]

100% agreed with that!!

[@SandrossAlim]

That looks amazing! Personally I’d stick with the black. I love the sinister look LOL

It does look freaking sweet

[@taylorschwarz241]

doesn’t look like you had to do any trimming! Any contact points when turning the wheels?? Awesome rig, about to put 285s on my v8

[@TRDJon]

Just a little trimming at the bottom of the stock bumper

[@sg5642]

Are you going to have to recalibrate your speedometer so you’re miles don’t rack up incorrectly? Tune?

[@TRDJon]

I’ll look into it but Idk if it’s much of a difference. I need to gps speed test it too

[@parkerwhitchurch8]

Is there rubbing on this setup? I’m about to lift my 4Runner but I’m not sure how much I should lift it yet. Have you done anything other than a lift to get these tires working, or could I get away with these?

[@spencerhubble2307]

How much cutting did you have to do to clear? I'd like to run the same size. My 285s seem to clear with ease. Thanks

[@BFSFISHINGCHANNEL]

gunmetal or bronze would pop! set up looks good man. any rubbing at all? your wheels/tires are a bit bigger than what im running but i had to delete the mudflaps and do a little bit of inner fender lining adjustment to get things to not rub.

[@TRDJon]

Oh gosh yes. Tons of rubbing.

V8 4th gen is the best 4Runner made period. The v6 has plenty of power also but the v8 is know to go 500k miles.

I didn't follow your explanation of the ET lug nuts, I don't see how offset would affect thread engagement.

I like the black on black! Does the 295s fit underneath for your spare ? I have a 5th gen and was gonna do the 295 km3 but didn’t know if it would fit where the spare goes

Soooo much imo. Way more low end torque

Can you post a link to the trim video? Interested in running the same tire on a 2004 with the OME lift. Not sure how much we want to trim so may have to go down a tire size.

[@TRDJon]

Yotamafia did the trim portion. I don't think we got footage of it unfortunately

[@codysons1055]

Looks great man! I'd keep the black wheels. You said those wheels would fit your 5th gen's tires, but will those BFGs fit on your 5th gen TRD wheels?

[@robertorpinel7051]

These 295 km3 would it be safe to run on 17 x 7 trd Sema wheels?? Thx in advance 👌

[@LionRunner]

Hooolyyyy.... That looks effing good...!! Too bad I can't run M/Ts here in CO because of the snow. I guess you have to mod those mud flaps right? No rub in front at full lock on a bump / rock? I had to trim a little on my 5th gen with 285/70r17s. KM3s are E load only right? I was thinking to go 285/75r17 load C on my 5th gen but worried if I have to remove mud flaps for rubbing and not sure if the 4L v6 would scream for anything over 285/70s. Don't want to re-gear and get in to a big mod project.

[@TRDJon]

Thanks man!! Yes 100% I will be removing the mud flaps and it rubs, alot. We will have to trim up front as well!!

Nothing that feels weird. There is vibration due to just big tired but nothing crazy bad

[@irfanspace]

@@TRDJon after 200Miles if you run road force balancing all little vibration will disappear , the know problem with 4runner its actually steering wheel shake between 55mph and 65mph , toyota still did not recall faulty driveshaft , happen on few not all ..

I know that for the 5th gen. This 4th gen never did that but I will keep an eye out!

[@stevevice9863]

You are probably actually going about 75 MPH when your speedo is reading 70MPH with 295/70/17's if the stock tire size was 265/70/16 Go to tiresize.com for a comparison chart on all the differences between tire sizes. 4Runner looks great.

295 isn't the wide of the tire its how tall the tire is a equivalent of a 33 IN tire

False. It is the width as well. In combination with the second number to factor in the height

[@AntonioClaudioMichael]

[@phatso786]

Hey Jon. Do you get any driver side lean with your setup? I have a 4th gen as well but the rear left lean is a lot. I have a similar setup as you

[@mrdallas9729]

I asked him if he noticed it and he said he didn't. I ordered the same lift kit and added the 10mm spacer but still not sure if I should install it with my lift. 🤔 Yotamifia said that it goes on the driver front because the factory shocks are made to level out. I'd hate to add it and have a high side and not an even. Still thinking on it. The fuel tank is the cause of the lean on the driver's side.

[@mrdallas9729]

I don't believe they installed it on this set up.

[@phatso786]

@@mrdallas9729 Yeah I added it to the front at first and it didnt fix the rear. So I removed it and put a daystar spacer in the back instead. Now its sitting pretty level. The gas tank is definitely the reason for the rear lean so it makes sense to add the spacer to the rear left.
