    I have a 2008 Tundra 2wd Reg Cab 8' bed pickup and just purchased Granite Alloy 18 x 9 wheels with Firestone Winter 275/65/18 studded tires. Will I have a problem with the Positive Offset creating problems needing a lift or level kit?

    New: Front & Rear (Granite Alloy GA640)
    Existing:

    2007-2013
    • 18" wheels - Width: 8", Offset: +60mm, Backspacing: 6.85", Hub Bore Diameter = 110mm with 255/70/18
    Second Gen (2007-2013) and Third Gen (2014+) Tundra
    No Lift Kit
    Max tire sizes are:
    • 18″ rims: 285/65 R18 – 5/10ths taller and 4/10ths wider than factory. Trimming may be necessary.

    Anyone know definitively if my new used winter tires will cause a Trimming or Lifting need?

    Also, gonna add 200lbs of sand to help with 2wd truck this winter and see how things work out in Maine and New Hampshire...

    Thank you!!
