I am in need of suspension mod advise for my 2012 4x4 SR5.
What are the appropriate modifications if I install the equipment listed below.

1. BFG 285/70 17 All Terrain T/A KOs mounted on Konig 17X8 Six Shooters (Offset 0mm Backspacing 4.5).
2. Engo EPF 10000 s winch (65lbs) on a Budbuilt concealed winch bracket.

I want to keep the lift to a minimum but still go light offroading without rubbing/interference.

Thanks in advance for your guidance!!!!

Mark, short of a lift (plenty of searchable info on that here already), you probably at least want to raise the front end. I just did mine yesterday and a link to my thread is below. Your tires may still rub though. If they do, you will have to mod the fender liners in the front to reshape them or just push them forward to get rid of the rub. Even if they don't rub on the pavement, with that extra weight in the front and any significant bouncing off-road, you may get some rubbing.

If "not" rubbing is you main goal then your looking at probably a 3'' front lift 2'' in the rear(toytec,, icon, OME, ect) and some uca's but you're still going to need to do some fender liner trimming.
 
See links in my signature. Really the winch is what's going to get you. I'd recommend toytec ultimate C/O on the cheap end w/ SAW rear springs or go the ICON, Radflo, King, Fox, Camburg, SAW, or Boss route. Icon kits are the easiest to get out of these, cause they sell complete kits.

There is always OME kits also.
