    I am luckily taking ownership of my first Tacoma and need some veteran advice. I will be getting the 2016 Tacoma TRD Sport and was wondering if I can fit a mastercraft courser AXT 275/70/17 on there withouot using a lift kit or leveling kit?? Any help would be appreciated as I am a Tacoma rookie but am looking forward to owning one.

    Why do you want the Sport over the Off-Road? More bang for your buck, IMO

    Not really sure, i like the sport features.Like i said I'm a rookie with tacomas and i got a pretty good deal so i went with it. I don't want to have to put a lift in it but would maybe think about a leveling kit but if i can get a 275/70/17 on the stock suspension i probably won't bother

    You know, I put a lift on my truck and although it looks cool, I don't really need it. I miss the stock ride at times. TBH, if I had went with a Sport, I wouldn't have lifted it.

    yeah i think at most i will put a rough country leveling kit in the front. i don't do a ton of serious off road driving. I do drive on the beach a lot however so i think the might be the way to go. Do you think i should do 265/70/17 or 275/70/17?

    Yeah a leveling kit would be good. 265/70/17 is as big as you can't o without having any rubbing issues. Stick with that size
