    Hey everybody i have a 2002 tacoma 4x4 currently with a 2 inch ome complete lift. I want to get 18 or 20x12 wheels on there but obviously i dont have enough space right now. What would be the best yet least expensive way to get high enough for this?

    Spacers, an angle grinder with a cutoff wheel, a BFH, maybe a grinding wheel for the grinder to smooth the edges. yeah

    Thats what i've always thought, so id probably have to go new lift. In which case, whats the best lift out there to get wide 33's on that also wont break the bank

    coilovers are infinitely adjustable. set them to what you want without going over 3" of lift. and 20x12 wheels have no place on a little taco. or any "truck" for that matter.

    you shouldnt actually need more lift to clear. just search for the "pinch weld mod" you have to trim same amount on 2" lift as you would 3" lift. If you dont wana trim then a db lift or body lift is the only answer.

    any of the "big" brands like fox,king,icon,ads will be top quality stuff aswell as rebuildable and revavleable. if you get an aftermarket ucas you can run extended travel coilovers to gain back some downtravel if going with the full 3". your cvs will be the limiting factor at this point.

    Will the king 2.5 give me the full 3 inch?
    I cant decide between the boss, toytec ultimate and those king coilovers

    any coilover will. out of those choices the kings are the best imo.

    Kind of a pointless question but would kings be a good choice up front with my current ome setup in the rear?

    Sounds like you don't wheel, if you do this is a stupid goal, stop. That's not near enough sidewall and that's waaaaaay to much wheel width.

    Otherwise,

    If your purely after aesthetics then a 6" drop bracket lift, lift blocks, shackles, and maybe even body lift.

    More then 3" suspension and those front axles are gonna have a bad time.

    Body lift may be the cheapest. While you are at it, get some triple chrome bed bars.
