    I want to put 35 x 12.5 tires on my 08 Tacoma with a 3" lift. But it looks like the upper a-arm is going to hit the tire. What do it have to to to put wider tires on?

    You will need wheels with 4.5" backspacing, an aftermarket front bumper, and to cut your fenders with an angle grinder to avoid rubbing.
