The ARB guy said they are way too big and I should look at something for the original rim.
I would be keen to hear from you blokes as to what exactly what else would need to be altered. I take it the mud flap could be removed or pinned back, but if your not going off road and putting the suspension under some serious stress then are they really going to scrub that bad and at what points will they touch, anything else I'm not aware of. I am looking at putting a set of KM2's on the 16' prado copy with +20 offset along with an EFS 2'' lift. Alternatively a set of Duratrac's.

Don't listen to the critics.. A 2 inch lift and the rims your talkin bout you won't have a drama.. Lads on here are running 265's with all sorts of offsets, me personally have -5 offset rims and all I have done o remove the front mudflaps.. Hope that clears a few things for you

No scrubbing at all and haven't needed to remove the mudflaps or pin them pack at all. Even under full compression I haven't seen any signs of scrubbing.
Just got a decent wheel alighnment when I got the wheels with as much forward caster as possible while still whin spec.
