Just got curious about the Toyo MT 35x13.5 on my rig, i knew they were wide, but man these things are too wide

no way man. looks good. lots of footprint.
 






I am assuming that the back is different, and that is why it isn't sticking out as far. But as for the front, I like the look! :thumbsup:
 












those are definitely 10 inch wheels
 






A couple items...

They look fine, but the wiper blades and mirrors give the illusion that the tires are too wide. You have 18" wipers? Max out the length... You could add those mirror extensions and it'll help. But it's an illusion, the vehicle looks great even w/o those things! Do you have any more shots of it?

What if someone photoshoped the lights to clear corners?
 






The rear is a 35x12.5 MTR, i don't have anymore pics just yet, i'm thinking about getting black wheels instead of the Alum.

The Toyo's have a 14.5" CS, i'm going to put one on a Black wheel and see how they look then, maybe get a little more backspacing on the wheel. I may have more pics by the weekend
 






Colors will do that...

Once they put wider rims on mine, the roof rack looked too narrow - so it got taken off, I visualized a wider cargo carrier, and then I started noticing the corners lamps. Once the corners where changed, it made the front end look wider and the rims looked normal again. The roof rack widened could make a difference, there's a company that sells one for like $160.00 that's wider and longer than stock... I think like $250 total to add 18" to the length. Mods are addicting :D
 






Can you post a pic with one wheel inside the bed of that Chevy in the street? May give a better perspective... :D I think it looks awesome!
 






Got some new wheels with a little more backspacing and got them mounted up today

Them things are a little on the wide side - but not too shabby.
 






I know this post is a little old, but I just picked up some barely used Toyos today and haven't had a chance to mount them up, explorer is in the shop getting gears. Do they rub on your springs at all will turning? What backspacing are your wheels?
 






10" wheels 3.75" BS and no rubbing whasoever, very good tire on the street but they follow the crowns and ruts pretty bad on braking
