What's the biggest tire size you've put on your GL?
Looking to outfit this EEOR equipped GL with some knobbier tires. What is the largest size tire one can fit without rubbing? I will keep the original wheels and tpms, and reprogram the speedo via SDS.
Stock size is 30.3" iirc, a 31 or 32" should fit without looking like a Bro Dozer.
Pictures show off-road 3 full up raised position.

22" with 305/40's. They do rub slightly on the back wheel well liner when at full lock. If you were to run raised at all times, you could run larger.

@BlownV8, that diameter and width of your setup is 31.6" x 12".
Unfortunately I will have to transit in low mode, so I'm thinking with a narrower tire, say 10" I could get away with a 32" tire - which would be a 255/70R18.
Anyone run these without rub?
For everyone's information, the overall vision is Expedition mobile able to traverse the WABDR.
