255 tire On TRD springs

Hey guys I looked around in some posts but couldnt find a good answer. Im about to buy a set of wheel 18x8 F and 18x9 R. +35 on all fours. I also plan to buy them tires of course 225 for the front and 255 for the rears. I have TRD springs. Would I encounter any issues with clearance or scraping with that size wheels?

Thanks in advance

My guess is that the spring/perch will not give you enough clearance. Unless the TRD springs are smaller diameter than stock.

I have 18x8.5 +48 wheels on all fours and they clear the front spring perch by a massive 3 or 4 mm so you should be OK.

Looks i will have to find out by buying it. Just to be safe I'll go with 245 tire on the back.
