    Hey guys,
    Thanks for all your help so far.

    plan is to put leveling kit on the 2020 TRD a sport. Will 295-70-18 fit? To be Mounted on Rays 18x9

    any suggestions/your favorite tire and leveling kit. Trying to retain the quiet, plush ride while getting good looks.

    Thank you again

    2”Coilover lift in front, no spacers. Leave the rear stock. Tires should fit with minor plastic remolding due to your wheel offset. I’d consider 285/70R18 and 285/75r18 as well, One size down and one a size taller. Depending on brand of tire and amount of mods you want to do to make it fit. May have to get adjustable UCA to help with fit and alignment.

    Yes. Minimum of 2" lift in the front but you will have to remove the front small mud flap. The SCS wheels are 25 offset, which will fit perfect. I wanted to keep the mud flap but I had to trim part of it to avoid rubbing. Now it fits perfect with no rub with the Toyo Open Country ATIII 295/70/18. You can see from the pictures what I had to do.
    It won't be plush ride like a Camry or Highlander; but it will soak up all bumps and give you a stable ride. It's a truck.

    Hope this helps. Good luck on the build and post some pics before and after.

    Hello everyone . I see the pics of the 295/70r18 tires that are over 34” tall . And I was trying to figure out why someone told me not to pick a 305/55r20 that is 33.2 tall because I would have to do a cmc and a lot of cutting to fit . And I see you guys doing very minimal trimming to fit 34” . I’m confused
    And I have a 2020 crewmax tss off-road package the black wheels. +53 offset so I know I will have to buy new wheels and tires . These are only 3 days old with 200 miles on them . Goodyear Wrangler duratrac

    Width is usually the deciding factor on fitment on these trucks and 305 is pretty wide. Width requires more trimming than height.

    To answer your question, yes that size tire will fit. Just recently completed leveling with Billstein 5100s on top setting. I utilized stock PRO wheels which are +60 offset. I had to remove the little mud flap in front of the front tires and cut a little of the skid plate (plan on purchasing a PRO skid plate which is narrower) so not a big deal for me.

    That’s a pretty BA looking ride. I see you took the front mud flap, is it still stock .

    Thx.
    2.5 level by Maxtrac
    pulled the front/bumper liner for now.
    The rear piece and flap are uncut but does slightly rub with full turn in reverse.
