    Got my VTX wheels with KO2 265/70R17 installed today on my 2018 4runner. Like everyone said, there’s rubbing on full turn.

    Wondering if anyone has any tips or guides to trimming for no rub.

    Get a cheapo heat gun from Harbor Freight and heat the mud flaps up (not hot enough to melt) and roll a beer bottle on them until they yield and stay that way.

    If you look at the mud flaps, you should be able to see where they're being rubbed on.

    Too many to list...
    Just take the flaps off the front entirely. Really no use for them.

    I threw my front mud flaps away, the rubbing stopped. On my lifted Titan I just heated/trimmed the mud flap. Both ways worked
