    Been looking and have not found the answer yet.
    2016 Tundra Limited 4x4 with factory 20 inch rims.

    Will a set of 285/60/20 tires fit with the factory rims with no mods other than the stage 2 lift?

    Put simply, a suspension lift will not provide more clearance for tires when the suspension is articulated. During full compression, the tire is in the exact same position with a suspension lift as it was when everything was stock. With that out of the way, your new tire size is definitely a bit bigger than stock, but not huge. You will need to be prepared to move some fender well plastic via either cutting it or heating it up and pushing it out of the way. You should be clear of having to do any cutting of anything metal.

    Also, if you haven't picked up your Eibach kit yet we have them over here at Hotshot Offroad and would be happy to help!

    I have that setup, you can fit 35 tall and 11-11.5 wide on factory +60 offset wheels with major fitment tweaks. Can keep mudflaps, need to trim skid unless you have the TRD skid. And remove from air flaps under front bumper.

    I run 18 inch OR wheels, 285/75-18 tires which are 34.8 tall and 11.3 wide, so tires similar in size for your 20inch wheels will work. The size you are considering will be about 33.5 tall, 11.2 wide so should be fine.

    Would I be better off going with a 275/60/20? Would any mods need to be done with this size?

    You should be fine with the size you want. I ran 11 inch wide, 33 inch tall tires with no lift-275/70-18.

    Stock trucks fit 34tall, 11 wide without lift. May need to remove those air flaps under the bumper.

    You should look over the 2.5 gen forum.....thousands of pics and build info....many have done similar upgrades.

    Here is a tool for you to understand tire size, especially helpful with metric sizes

    Thanks for the link to sizing.
    So It looks if I can run a 33 inch tall tire

    What did you have to do additional to run the 34 inch tall tire you used

    re-read- I explained all that before.

    Stock trucks fit 34tall, 11 wide without lift using stock +60 offset wheels

    With 2 inch lift in front, 35 tall and up to 11.5 can fit.

    If you are concerned, just run a tire in the 33-34 tall range and width of around 11 inches, those will fit stock or lifted with stock wheels.
