Eibach springs and 37’s GEN 1

[brockly41]

I know 37’s fitment has been beat to death here, but with eibach releasing new front springs last year I have a new question for those of you running them. I had the springs installed a few months ago, along with 37x12.50R17 Toyo MT’s and 17x9 -12mm fuel shok’s. The fuel’s scrubbed way too much so I had to go back to stocks, and now have close to no scrubbing with stock wheels. My question is, can I go to a 17x8.5 with 0mm offset and avoid scrubbing? I live in Georgia so very few shops know anything about trimming/cutting raptors and I’d prefer to not have to do any myself.

oh, just curious. On a gen 2 the zero offset works with 37's and Eibachs, not sure about gen 1.

Good to know, my guess is I’ll have to do a little bit of trimming. Maybe a Gen 1 owner can give me some insight before I order wheels

0 offset and 37s will always require trimming.

Fenders wouldn’t be a bad idea depending on how you use the truck.

Thought about it many times. Shipping costs always ruin the idea for me. Also don’t really do enough heavy off-roading to need them. They look phenomenal though

Understandable. Seems like trimming is my only route. Thanks for the info
