New '06 Limited owner! With questions..

[muttbutt]

After selling my '00 sr5 quite some time ago, I've finally made my long anticipated return to the t4r community! I'll post pics soon of what I have to work with, but its gorgeous to say the least, v6 and only 60k miles on it as well : )

Quick question, what wheel and tire specs gives you the best look as far as pushing the tires out to just oustide of the wheel wells given a stock height?

I also am looking into the 2" spacer lift option, and was curious as to how big of tires you can actually run with that lift without a ton of trimming once I am actually able to lift my rig?

Glad to be back

Welcome back to the t4r family! :thumb:

Quick disclaimer - there are guys on this forum that know much, much more than me, but I can offer some advice. For spacing the tires past the wheel well, your pretty limited with the stock lift and rims. Your best bet is to get wheel spacers (not to be confused with a spacer lift). I believe Spidertrax 1.25'' are one of the more popular ones on the forums. You could go with bigger tires too, but I think the wheel spacers would get you what you're looking for.

As far fitting tires with that lift - I have a 3'' spacer lift and I have 255/75/R17 tires. There a little over 32'' and pretty great for a daily driver. The only spot where they rub is wheel fully turned to the left in reverse. Even then, it really only would require minimal trimming. That being said, I can't speak to how much rubbing there would be with bigger tires, spacer lift, and wheel spacers.
