Size?
2005 SR5, I have no idea about the lift/leveling kit as I just bought it. It has BFG KO2 285/75/16 and only an occasional rub on fender flare plastic. Can't seem to upload pic from phone but there are a couple in the new member thread on the last page that I loaded from my laptop.

255/75R17 Cooper AT/Ws and a 2.5" Daystar spacer lift.
NICE, but you don't need a lift to fit a 255/75/17 correct? I have FJ Coils and the off road package set up and planning on putting that size tires on next week.

Spring is finally here so the new wheels and tires went on after doing the lift last fall.
ProComp 135 with BFG KO 2's 275/70-17. Rubbing on the front liner and mudflaps so cut them a bit. Have about 2cm/1inch clearance before the body mount so feeling good about that.
Now my biggest concern is how to put the spare on. Looks like it will be a little tight underneath, plus the original spare tire hoist is corroded all to hell.
Thought of a rear bumper mount but that could really interfere with my mountain bikes loaded on the rack. I would have to get an extension receiver to get the rack out further to give more clearance from the tire and handlebars.
Looked at getting a different roof rack and mounting it up there but now with the lift and tires, it would too high and I couldn't park in my garage anymore. Or at least for the summer months until i put the winter tires back on in the winter.
First world problems...

I used a Daystar 2.5/1.5 and the TRD wheels with my BFG KO2’s.
Just a little rubbing up front.
Moved the liner forward and trimmed a bit of the lower fender plastic and no more issues.
... but I’m still running an 11 year old Xreas suspension with 135k miles.

275/65R18 Falken Wildpeaks
18x9 Level 8 MK6 Wheels (et0)
2nd Gen Tacoma TRD Offroad Shocks/Springs in front, TRD Shocks/FJ Springs in rear.
Removed Mudflaps, and moved front fender liner forward. May need BMC since I'm not lifted.
Im surprised your not rubbing more with no lift.
Are those Falken's P's? I was thinking of going up to that size with my next tire (and lift). How do you like them so far?

Go with Falken! For the money, they're great tires. I had a set of AT's on my Nissan Pathfinder 7 years ago (didn't do any trail riding) but had no issues for how much driving I did. Now, I have E-rated 285/70-r17 MT's and I love them. Just hit 10k miles on them and they're awesome tires.
And for anyone worried about rubbing.. get a razor blade and cut that BS plastic and get you a Metal Tech Body Mount Chop. You won't regret it.

Just ordered for 03 v8
OME 2885 and toytec 1/4” spacers for front & toytec superflex 2” for the rear
Will I be level or too high in the front?

Did you use a top spacer on both driver and passenger side?
