    Some brands have the size in inches on the side but you can Google your size at the manufacturer website to get the exact size. I believe 275/65/18s are considered 32s.

    3" suspension lift 305/55R20 w/2"spacers
    I installed the Zone 3" lift with the 2 inch leveling kit. I installed 305/55R20 tires and a 2" wheel spacer. I also removed the bolt on plastic mud flaps and have very minimal rubbing on the front plastic behind the bumper. I just haven't had the time to make a perfect fitment. The profile pic is before and below are the after. Hope this helps. Lift2.jpg Lift1.jpg

    If you have a garage and actually put your truck in it, then lift as high as you can and still be able to fit in the garage. I would never lift something that wont fit back into my garage.(once i build one :rofl:). I bet there are many that have come home after lifting and modding only to find that they cant fit in the garage anymore.

    I did a full leaf pack. If you mean wheel and tires they are 20x10 at -18. This gets it out away from the UCA. Tires are 275/70/20...could Haha been bigger.

    I tow my 21ft. Bay boat at least once a week with my lift but I have a company car and drive the tundy less than 10,000 miles a year. Go with a three inch lift bigger tires you'll be happy. I run 35x12.5's toyo mt's and I think they look awesome. Not too small if you go with a meaty aggressive tire imho.

    33.6"s for reference. They fill the wheel well nicely at 3/2 lift. 35s will eat your MPGs... just my .00002 cents worth.

    I have them on SCS SR8s which are +25 vs +60 offset of factory. More offset = more trim.

    On the front: remove small front mud flaps, remove/trim rear mud flaps
    On the rear: nothing

    I’m running the icon 2.5s with reservoirs on the front and back with toytec add a leaf and I also added the airlift5000 airbags for when I tow. I have 20x9 rims and 33 tires. I intend on running the coachbuilder shims up front to get it to a total of 4” on the front and their 1” shackles on the rear for a total of 2”.

    I was originally running a 3” leveling spacer up front and 2” blocks in the rear. It wasn’t bad, but I knew I wanted to drive on trails and light off-roading so I researched the best system for me that I could afford. I also knew I needed airbags for towing because the one time I towed with this new truck it still squatted a good 2”. I’m about to tow my first time with the airbags, so I’ll see how it does with that system.

    This is how it sits with the current setup.
