I’m looking for something a little more street/highway. This vehicle doesn’t go off road. Maybe a dirt road once in a great while.

Any rubbing? I'm having this exact setup, but with coopers, installed on Monday.

Little rubbing going on. I notice it when I’m turning and applying the brakes. I’m thinking it’s the liner bolts. Stage 2 Ironman4x4 lift going in soon. Should be a non–issue after that.

Default BC Forged photoshoot

BC Forged did a photoshoot with my GX a few weeks ago because apparently, I’m the first 2020 GX with their wheels. Manufacturing needed to confirm brake sizes and such bc they didn’t have any specs for the 2020. Obviously, we know nothing changed with the refresh, but they weren’t sure. Anyway, the photographer sent me the pics, so I figured I would share a few here. They should be up on their website soon.

As I mentioned earlier, the specs are 18x9 ET0 mounted on 265/65/18 Wildpeaks. No lift.

a 0 offset and you don’t experience any rub? That setup does look badass. But I’m on. +20 offset with the same size tire and ever so slightly rub when breaking and turning! Did you do any modifications or trimming to avoid rubbing?

Awesome thanks. Got my setup installed this week. Having the same issue with the liner bolt. I went with Cooper Discoverer AT3 4S in 265/70/17. Which, by the way, for anyone who's curious, Coopers in this size run small @660 revs/mile vs 657 for BFG KO2 and 653 for wildpeak's. As a result I had no issues getting it to fit in the spare location WITH the factory hitch.

Don't have any off-road or trail options within 3 hours of me, so I've gone the other direction.

thank you. I did a lot of back and forth on colors, sizing, offset, etc. before making a decision. The exposed titanium hardware on the wheels was my wife’s input. Glad I listened to her on that one.

Default New 20’s

Wasn’t happy with the 18” setup I sent with. Post#894 above (those are for sale btw) I’m happy with the new 20” setup. 285/50/20 Nitto Terra Grappler G2’s and Fuel Kicker +20 et. I’m experiencing tad rub when turning into driveways. I’ll look into the fender liner mod if I can find it.
