4.5/3 lift
Wheels: Micky Thompson Sidebiter II 17x9 0 offset
Spacers: 1.5 wheel spacer, cheap ebay stuff
Tires: Falken Wildpeak AT3W 285/70/17, E
Suspension: ICON Stage 1, with 3" overland spring. With some JBA UCA. And two 1/4" shims to add another 1" to the 3.5 from Icon. So that make a 4.5" front and 3" rear lift
Body Mount Chop: None
Tire rub: only rub when I reverse. No rub at all on road or off road.
Trimmed: about 1/4" from front bumper.
Mud flaps: Removed fronts for now, they were rubbing little bit.

Yesterday I finally upgraded my wheels and tires from the stock SR5 wheels and stock size BFG AT KO's. Couldn't be happier with the outcome!
Thanks @VTXOffroad for the wheels, they look badass.
Specs:
VTX Offroad Viper's 17" x 8.5", Satin Black
Toyo Open Country AT2's LT285/70/17 Load Range E

I'm looking to do a 3inch lift with 285 Nitto Ridge Grapplers. Do you get any rubbing on your daily drive?

Beautiful setup!
How are you still running your front mudflaps without rubbing? Did you have to cut a hole in them or did you do the heatgun trick?

You need to trim the front bumper overhanging lip at an angle at the very bottom....about 3 inch length of that end are gone...
and the front mud flaps have to go.....
Next I made sure to have alignment tech keep the rear most eccentric washer in the middle and adjust the front eccentric to spec for camber...caster will be out but acceptable.
Before leaving alignment I did full turn of the wheel and I had about .5 to .7 inch gap at the rear and about .4 to .5 inch gap at the front bumper after trimming.

Those look like factory SR5 wheels possibly powder coated gunmetal

Decided to do the lift.
Thanks for the help. I decided to get the lift and stay with the 285/70/17 tires. I'm hoping to pick it up tomorrow and I'll post some pics.

Your Everyday 5th Gen Wheel Lineup
For personal reasons, I wanted to put together a graphic of all the wheels I am considering. I have a set of ATX wheels right now that are oxidizing pretty bad... So, new wheels are in my future. Hopefully, it helps someone else. :cheers:

I am not a huge fan of them but that's whats so cool about runners and wheels, everyone has their own look. I think they look sick on a Tahoe or something, I just wouldn't throw them on my runner. To each their own!
