FX4 wheels with 35's

I like the OEM 20'' wheels and wanted 35/12.50 tires so I bought some Toyo Open Country M/T's and had them mounted on my OEM wheels and the OEM wheels are 20x8.5 with a +44 offset and for the 35/12.50 Toyo's the minimum width rim is 8.5''. I had to add spacers so the tires wouldn't contact the upper control arm so I chose hub centric 1.5'' spacers and I think they look good, here are a couple pics before the spacers since I don't have any after the spacers yet...

Thanks. The only thing I've noticed is sidewall flex but that is to be expected with such width tire and narrow wheel.

The width of the tires should fit perfect on the stock 8.5 inch wide wheels. Still looks good!!

Nice! I'd really like to see some pics from the front and rear with the spacers installed that show the stance.

Looks good! I have contemplated putting my 295/60s on my OE 20"s.

I thought about going with the 12.5. After a little reading and thinking I went with the New Nitto Ridge Grapplers in 35x11.5x20 on the OEM 20" rim. I really wanted the Toyos but was told the Nitto and Toyos are basically sister tires I think the 11.5 really work well with the OEM 20" rim and I also added Bilstein 5100s front and back, adjustable up front set at 1 3/4. Just about level maybe a ever so slightly rake.
