    Hey everyone,

    I’ve been trying to find some numbers regarding overall cab height on a 2013 Tundra SR5 with a 4.5” RC lift and 35x12.50R20 tires. I need the truck to still clear parking garages for work but would like something more than a leveling kit or 3”. I appreciate any insight you all can provide.

    Stock trucks are about 76 inches tall. You will probably be sitting about 6 inches higher with the lift and tires. So would depend on how high the parking garage is.

    Many garages are around 6 foot 10, or maybe 7 feet max, so it will be close.

    I would suggest 2.5-3 inch lift, you can still clear 35s with that. Lots of info on fitting 35s in the wheel and tire forum here, or use search in upper right.

    Thanks frichco228! The garages in my area are 6’8 on the clearance but I’ve seen a Silverado on 35’s with what looks like a 4” lift in there without issue. I know I could probably do the 3.5” kit from RC without issue but I wouldn’t mind a little extra clearance with how unpredictable the winters can be.
