    I’m running 305/65/18. At the last minute I changed from the 275 tires I ordered. Happy I did!!

    @bluekn Did you do anything to the rear? Or is it stock? Any regrets? Or would do it all over again?

    Only thing I did to the rear was install some Billy 5100s which provides no lift. No regrets whatsoever, I absolutely love it. Let me know if you have anymore questions or concerns. I would be more than happy to help.

    What size/type tire are you running? I’m trying to decide between middle or top and what size tire.

    Its all preference on height but I'd raise the rear if you go top setting. It'll look slightly nose up

    Your truck is perfect man. Ideally I’d like to go middle setting with 295/70r18 but I was worried about them fitting. I plan to keep my stock +60 TRD off-road wheels for now. Anything else done to the front other than the 5100s at middle setting? Anything done to the rear?

    The factory offset may be an issue, you'll have to look around and see if anyone runs 295's on them. Shouldn't be hard to dig up, its one of the more common size tires on the forum. I've got 5160's in the rear but its at stock height. Nothing else in the front besides the 5100s

    Gotcha, you’re running +25 Ray 10’s right? Are the tires Toyo AT3?

    What about trimming? Bumper liner/skid plate? Any rubbing now?

    There's rubbing in reverse at full lock but only to one side, I dont remember which. The rubbing is on the rear plastic liner, barely gets into it when you dime out the wheel. It happens so infrequently that I haven't bothered with it. I have a nice heat gun, I guess I'm just lazy. Some people have more rubbing than others but it's not a big deal to push the plastic around a little. I would just expect it

    @Skoden are you using wheel spacers at all? How much clearance do you have with the 275/70r18? Think you could fit 295/70r18 with your set up? You said you used a 1" block. Is that for the rear?

    No spacers. My next tires will be 295’s. Only reason I have 275 is because I put them on before the lift. Yes the block is for the rear

    I feel like everyone has slightly different results. I went 5100s on the middle and I was dead level (within 1/4 difference between every wheel well).

    I additionally added a 1” block to the rear to keep the front lift, while giving me back the factory rake.


    5100s middle setting, factory size tires
