    Hey guys. It is my first time in the forums and looking forward to connecting with other Tundra fans. I want to lift my 2012 Tundra Platinum Cremax but want to keep the stock wheels. Does anyone have pictures if this set up? I would like to get a feel for how the truck would look.
    Thanks

    Thanks guys. I noticed some guys are using wheel spacers and some are not. What is the advantage of using spacers?

    Makes the tires stick out a little more since most/all stock wheels don't provide that aesthetic look. Essentially provides the offset an after market wheel might have. I suppose having a wider stance it might help the truck to handle a little better. I've noticed a little difference but not much. I really like mine. No vibration at all. If you do get them just be sure to tighten them to the manufacture specs (mine were 85 ft lbs) and then recheck after your first drive.

    With some of the stock rims you will have to use spacers because the wider tires will rub the upper A-arm. I did 1.5 because the guys on this site said that's what you had to do with my rims. I could have gotten away with 3/4" or and 1". With the spacers my truck is very loose and I'm not really sure why
