    I just got a tundra and am planing on leveling it with 3 inch struts spacers and was wondering ifii could run 34.5x12.5 grabber at2s. Could someone help me out?

    Welcome aboard. The short answer is yes. Depending upon wheel offset, there might be some fender trimming. I'm running 34/10.5 BFGs with a little over 2.5" dialed into mine. They only rub the frame at full lock. GL.

    Seems reasonable to assume if a 10.5” wide tire barely rubs the frame, then a 12.5” one is gonna rub pretty significantly. Haven’t seen hardly any 1st gens running 34’s on 3” of lift myself.

    I’ve run 32’s with and without wheel spacers, with a 2” wheel spacer they will only frame rub at full turn lock. Without the spacers they will rub everything! Now I just ordered and installed a 3” leveling kit which claims to clear at least 33 inch tires so I’ll let you know what kind of measurements I get

    A lot depends on your wheel offset. You can run 35s but you might go through a lot of trial and error making it work. I've seen 35s on LT 1st gens.

    Agree, went through a few spacers before I found the best “fit” (still rubs) the only issue you may run into is pushing your wheels out excessively far if you don’t have fender flares

    I’m betting that’s on a 3rd gen, not a first.

    Oops yes it's a 3rd gen.

    I did have a 2005 on 285/70/17 leveled for 12 years. My truck had 2.75" coilovers and a 1" BL. I tried a 285/75/17 for a couple months and it rubbed the frame bad. You need to go over 4" in the front for that tire.

    I'm on 295-75-16 with a 2 inch leveling kit. That tire measures out to a 33.4x11.6-16. I had to run spidertrax 1.25 inch spacers to get them away from the upper control arm. I had to cut the front bumper up and the fenders to get them to clear. You will most likely need a 4 inch kit. Not saying it cant be done, but you're going to have A LOT of cutting to do. Plus, you need to check the rims for the right backspace. I'm at 4.26 inches of backpacking on my rims. You try that with a stock rim, it ain't gonna work. Raceline Rockcrusher rims are a decent wheel with I believe 3.71 inches of backspace on their 16x8 rim. They'll stick out, but should clear the upper A arm. Still may need a small spacer though.

    The stock rims are ugly anyways.
