    I want to run 33's on my 2014 XSP-X but the kits I find online say "will not fit XSP-X" -(rough country) I've even talked to local body shops and they can't seem to find anything either. Anything helps I just really wanna lift it.

    The xsps is just cosmetic stuff. Everything should fit it

    Oh and a lift alone won't allow you to fit 33s

    Tell us what you want to do with the truck as far as use. Is it 2wd? 4x4? You say 33s but you doing 255s or 285s?

    If you wanna run 33's then you'll need to do a can mount chop tho slow for the bigger tires to turn fully without rubbing.

    You'll need to remove mud flaps, trim wheel well and probably CMC.

    As far as lift you could do spindles. Or get new coil overs. Or spacers if you want. Depends on how you use truck

    I'm running bilstein 5100s at .085 setting which is 2.5" I'm not running the top plate spacer for the full 3" and my 285's fit fine. I do have a cab mount chop and trimmed some of the mudguards in the wheel well.

    I'm 99% certain that "xsp-x" is a bunch of cosmetic bolt ons that one particular dealer installs. Has nothing to do with engine, Drive train or suspension

    Don't see how. Toyota Wouldn't redesign the suspension of a truck for just one trim level. Can you post pictures of your current suspension? That way we can tell you for sure.

    "The spacers will not fit the struts. That one (xsp-x) has the lifted strut with a different bolt pattern" this is what ruff country told me /p.s i know ruff country is trash and im not considering them. im just curious since theirs wont fit will others fit

    Some stuff. Not a lot, just some.
    How are you getting 2.5" at .85 setting? Are you running aftermarket coils?

    I'd do a maxtrac spindle kit if I were you... 6" spindle with 285's would look solid!
