    I have a 2014 TRD TX Baja with stock baja suspension and 16 inch tires. I want maybe a 17 inch wheel with a little taller tire.

    Does the baja come with a lift or do you have one on it?

    enough to go over stuff
    The biggest you can run without rubbing is 265/70/17inch rim or 265/75/16inch rim.

    My 285's rub on my lower control arm with a 3" lift on stock wheels at full lock. Not bad enough to worry about for me right now though.
