Tire options

I can't seem to find a definitive thread that answers this. For those that went with spacers and can lift the G up with bigger tires(33s) and same stock 20" wheels, what size and tire is everyone opting for?

Built 2008 G55 & one big 80 Series LandCruiser !
305/55's in toyo AT2s fit well without a lift and 31mm spacers - they work even better with a mild spring spacer....20mm would be perfect.

I went with a 40mm version and new Fox shocks and upgraded to 35's after this trip..... will be adding new brake/ locker lines and a 60 mm spacer to get it where I want it.....very slippery slope !

Thanks for the response! Exactly what I was looking for. Those bigger tires definitely fill the wheel well. Definitely begging for a bigger lift 0.0
