    Let's see them!

    I am buying my truck soon. Going to be White Platinum 2014-2016. Anyone know if the 2016 will have push button start?

    Thanks so much in advance as I am shopping my wheel and tire combo now and wish to not lift but would consider leveling kit. Anyone know if I can go any lower than the 2.5/1 level and would it do any good?

    You can do just a 1.5"-2" spacer in the front to level it out. Toytec sells one. I also have one up for sale in the marketplace if your interested.

    There are some good links in my sig for wheel and tire setups.

    A White Platinum? Does this spacer setup do anything to the ride?

    It's a small spacer lift so it is not going to affect the suspension much. Cheap way to level the truck and fit a little bigger tires in the front.
    Had it on my truck when I bought it and had it on for a little while. Road like a stock truck still.

    I leveled my 2015 tundra with 2" spacers. Anyone know the biggest tire set up I could put on there without rubbing? I'm clueless on tires. I actually like the rims on my limited tundra, to they make aggressive tires to fit that 20" rim? Lol. No one probably does that if they do..what would be a good option to go with?

    Your question can be answered by looking at the info in the wheel and tire link in my sig below.

    Texastrav,

    Did you ever put those 285/60/20's on your Crewmax? I'd like to see pics if you did. And what level did you end up with?

    No I haven't kelly, I did find a pic online that shows what it would look like on my platinum stock rims.

    Thanks.. Looks exactly like mine. In the coming weeks I'm going to add a level and 285/60/20's. I'll post pics once I pull the trigger.

    Oh one or two.
    Leveled in the front no lift in the rear 35x12.5x18" Toyo RT's on Fuel 18x9" with a +20 Offset. I had to remove the front plastic from the front bumper and the front mud flaps. All I have is a very slight rub on the front bumper at full lock in reverse.
