I don't have 265/70-17 but I have 265/65-18 which is very close to the same diameter and I've had no problems. I believe there are a couple folks on this board running 265/70-17s with no problems.

4runner and GX are the same physically.

^Good Read

I run 265/70/17 Goodyear MT/R's with no rubbing, and 265/65/18 AT KO, no rubbing there either.

I did the same thing and am running 265-70-17 on FJ wheels as my snow/off-road setup. No rubbing.

It's hard to tell from that GIGANTIC pic, but the FJC wheels look damn good!
