    Hey people of the Tundra forum I'm needing some help. I just bought some new wheels and tires and they're 35/12.50/20 sized tires and I know they won't fit but I need some help finding a good lift kit and what size lift kit i should get. If anyone would help that'd be amazing.

    4.5 inch lift or 6 inch lift would probably look the best.

    @RAGINGAP
    I personally prefer a lower stance. 1st gen Tundra's and 1st gen Tacoma's are similar.
    I had coil overs & UCA's up front with a 1.5" expansion pack in the rear and Advance Fiberglass all around.
    LOTS OF CUTTING AND TRIMMING required but totally worth it IMO.

    I don't wanna hijack the thread, but your truck looks great! What offset are your wheels? Have much rubbing/trimming?

    @Jerry311SD @Ostrich
    Walker Evans Bead-locks, 17x9 4.5BS/-12MM.
    Took 2 weekends of work to clear. I was able to fit my foot through the floor board/firewall before the started plating it all in. No rubbing anywhere. I removed the coilover and bump stops and cleared everything @ full bump & full turn both directions. Plus I rotated the alignment cams all the way in, all the way out, forward & back (best case & worst case scenario alignment). I had approx. a hands thickness around the whole tire. To say it took a lot of work is an understatement, but I recommend it to anyone in the off road game. It's become common knowledge that "big lift = bigger tires" but that's not true. Dare I say it but, "big lift = bigger tires 'easily'". This is how most stock modified race trucks are done (SCORE, Class3, Class8,Class7, ect...). It's not easy but it's required to stay within Class regulations, that's why you see so many "Stock-Looking" race trucks in SCORE & BITD on 35's & 37's.

    Thanks man. My offset is +20. No BMC, but I am rubbing the front fender liner a little bit. I need to shim the bumper forward or trim the liner. I’m only rubbing in reverse though.

    I'll be out at King of the Hammers Feb 5-9 Looking at different wheels on the trucks and other stuff. I really like the looks of these Walker Evans tho.
    I'd like to stay with 17" wheels.
