    I know this has been posted before, but I cant find the answers I'm looking for. I need help.

    "Mbreed2 shouldn't you be more concerned with your timing belt and transmission??"

    Yes, those projects are underway. But I'm at work now and this is on my mind.

    I have tire rub.
    I have a leveling kit.
    I have spidertrax 1.25" wheel spacers.
    My tires are 265/70 R17
    My rims are...

    I got them off a guy who had them on his newer Tacoma.

    As of now my rear and front wheels sit visibly parallel. So I don't want that to change.
    Are these specs within acceptable range? Or do I need to change something?

    Suprised you have rub with that setup, is it rubbing on body or frame? could be the spacers, might not even need them

    Spacers will make you poke out more cause rubbing on the pinch weld and outer fender. The -6 offset on the wheels and the -31.75 offset on the spacers is causing you to stick out a lot. You will need to do some trimming and hammering, or ditch the spacers.

    How much tire rub we talking?your at a little less than 3.5 inch backspace, which is pretty aggressive but not unheard of.

    Currently rubbing the front bumper lower trim when I turn and back up. I'm going to get an alignment to make sure my caster is where it should be, then go from there.
