TRD Pro vs TRD OR Track Width

[taco_pd]

How does the pro achieve a wider track width than the OR?

I have an OR iforce max on the way and going to probably do a lift. Looking at OME BP 51 but want to achieve the same stance as the Pro. Do I need to do anything else to achieve the inch wider track width or is it just a positive offset on the wheels?

wanted to get the pro but hate the seats enough to just get an OR and make it as pro as possible.

I believe the videos I've seen state it's done with wheels/tires.

I watched a video yesterday where Sheldon brown chief engineer was telling that TRD designed new control arm which TRD pro comes with . Thats what gives it 1 inch higher compared to of road

Wheel offset is what gives the Pro additional width.

Yeah, I believe Toyota did this because they are very aware that people will be putting giant tires on these. So it looks good with OE, but when you get your own wheels and tires you can utilize the fenders with the larger tire. I cant help to also assume that with the right wheel + a 35" tire, the wheel bearings wont take as much of a beating from them. The OEM setup will have been designed for that to some extent.

That's just an assumption. Kind of like how that new plate in the wheel well that needs to be removed for a 35" tire. Better than a body mount chop! They did their best to make it modifiable, while appeasing Japan in the process. That's my theory anyway.

Toyota wont design things like Chevy, Jeep, and Ford do so they kind of jump through hoops to get this stuff approved by corporate.
