    Assuming you had an alignment after getting your lift on (which I know was recently) then no, you will not need another alignment.

    Did you get an alignment program through NTB? If you did, just do it, it's free. The lager wheels and and new offset will change the trajectory of your camber just slightly. Although it may not be enough to tell from the naked eye. You should be safe either not getting one, or waiting a few days. Either way, if it's free, do it, if not free, that's on you, at least have em check it free and tell you if it's off and what is off.

    Ok cool, I may get one this weekend.

    Just want to maximize the life of the new tires

    EDIT: yes I paid for a 1yr alignment

    So the get together at Gristmill for the 22nd is going to have to be postponed for a later date. My sister had to change the date of her baby shower because of personal things with the family. We'll try to get something going later or if you guys want to still go feel free.

    Few questions:

    Does anyone have a backup camera on their tacoma and a spare tire carrier attached to the bumper? If so does the tire block the camera?

    Since I imagine the bumper carrier creates visibility issues in the rear view, has anyone tried putting their spare on a bed rack?

    Example rack:

    I have a camera and a tiregate. I had to fab a mount for my OEM-ish camera to fit into a license plate camera top/frame thingie because the I didn't have a regular tailgate anymore :p

    Wasn't hard to do and it works fine. You can actually see it in this photo.
