GX550 Overtrail Wheels/Tires on Meteor Shower Land Cruiser

[LALC]

Someone at my office has a GX550 Overtrail, and I really liked the look of the wheels/tires. We had the Toyo AT3s on our previous 4runner and really liked them. I wanted to stick to stock size tires for weight, spare tire, and no worries about rubbing. The Land Cruiser will see difficult forest roads at worst, so they'll be great. I found a set of 4 on facebook and got them for 1100 without tire pressure sensors.

The stock 18" wheel/tire weighed 67lbs on my scale, and the Overtrail wheel/tire weighed 70.4, so that's pretty good. The thing that surprised me was the center caps actually fit. I'm really happy how it all came out.

Love that look! Kind of like the tundra bbs wheels.

I love those wheels. Much better looking than the stock LC wheel IMO.

Did you lift or level your LC? Maybe the stance just looks better with the over trail wheels and tires

Suspension is stock l, but I took the pics right after I put them on. So the suspension probably hadn't settled yet and could have been sitting a little higher.

Looks awesome . I don’t know why there are so much conflicting information on wheel tire weight. Per motor trend video reviewing the Lexus suspension, the ot wheels and tire combo is 66 pounds on the scale. So the question is who the hell makes these scales that are off as much as 4 pounds

There is a good chance my horn scale is off, it's cheap. But using that scale to weigh both wheels back to back gives a good idea of the weight difference from stock.

The set is relatively light. Can you please share your mpg ?

It's actually my wife's vehicle, so I don't really pay attention that much. On a couple of road trips, seems to get about 23-24 at 70mph, and drops quickly to 20-22 in the high 70s. Neither of those are firm calculated numbers, just estimates of me semi paying attention. Both trips were pretty windy, 15-20mph sustained, but all very flat and low altitude.

I've also removed those plastic pieces in front of the tires, that's going to have an impact.
