33 inch tires

does anyone know if I can put 33’s in my 2018 Tacoma with a 3” spacer lift

 

Yes, but it will rub on the cab mount more than likely. Will need to do some plastic trimming and possibly a CMC if you want to be able to fully articulate your suspension without issues

 

Did you try searching this forum? This gets talked about all the time.

 

CMC being a cab mount chop

 

Yes, should've broken that down for ya, sorry. Get so used to all the acronyms on this site, I use them unknowingly

 

I do too, but I saw OP had 1 post to his name so I figured he'd get wrapped around the axle on that one.

 

New member, joined today.. I think we can cut em some slack

 

Thanks for chiming in on that buddy

 

I know someone with a 3” spacer, no rubbing on 33s @D-Taco

 

You can get 255s and not have to worry about your cab mount, too.

 

what size are his rims and tires

 

I'd probably make that face too, if I haven't been wheeling just as hard as people on 285s for the last couple years with no issues and better fuel economy.

....says the guy with a stack of 315/75/16s sitting in his garage waiting on wheels to get here

 

Its funny how adding lift sometimes made 255's rub worse https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/put-255-85-16s-on-stock-or-wheels-and-suspension.491079/

 

Haha... all good. Im just teasing a little. Whatever works!

What wheels / tires are you going with?

 

You can put 33"s on with no lift at all. And not rub, no cutting, no trimming. You have to use the right tire and the right fitment wheel though. Like a 255 85 16 or 255 80 17 on an OE wheel. (or aftermarket with OE specs).

You might reconsider using budget spacers for a lift on a $35k ride though. You'll like the results much better with a more quality product. On or off road.

Also consider staying closer to 2". You'll need less hardware to accomplish it, and have a lower risk of future ancillary issues.

I guess the overall package selection is based on if you're building a mall adventure rig that looks tough or a functional off road ride.

 

Right now I'm running a set of dead DC Extreme Countries on some ebay wheels. Cheapo Craigslist deals and friend "payments" to get 35s to fit.

Going with SCS F5s with STT Pros for the first "new" set of dirties. Just waiting on the wheels to get delivered Thursday.

 

Lift makes the 255s rub on the upper control arms, rather than the cab mount. Happens cause stock wheels have a mile of backspace. You can fix it with aftermarket wheels or spacers.

 

Haha... got em! Im just waiting on tires.

 

The STT Pros are friggin awesome. I wish I would’ve gone with 35’s though. I ended up getting 295’s instead.
Oh well. These will wear out eventually.
