My HREs/Grappler G2s are ready for the G when it arrives next month. Having them install them before I take delivery.
I want to see for the first time the way I envisioned it.

Maybe this has been asked and answered somewhere, but is there a risk of voiding the factory warranty if you change tire size?
In this case I'm going from the stock Pirelli P Zero All Season 275/50R20 to the new Pirelli Scorpian A/T Plus 275/55R20 (only 1" difference).
The tire shop said I should check with the dealer about possibly voiding the warranty if I make the change.

The spare tire looks great! (I do not like the cover)...I would like to do something similar to install exactly the same wheel and tire (LT285/55R20) as spare tire. Could you let me know which specific pieze you bough to be able to make this possible?

Built 2008 G55 & one big 80 Series LandCruiser !
Thanks - I miss the G ( it was totalled in a rear ending accident) - the rims from Forgestar were 20x10.5 et 25 and the spare was 20x9 et 12 with a 275/65/ 20 to match the OD of the 305's.... I used the 911 flip bracket and it worked perfectly.

Cheers

I know this post is a bit old, but curious as to the exact size of your Nitto's? Debating between 285/55/20s vs 275/55/20s
Great looking set-up.
