    Hi, New member here. I own a 2008 Tacoma ext cab v6. Will install a Bilstein 5100 1.5 -2" lift and I am not sure how big I can go on new tires without rubbing with this set. Was thinking 275/70/17 Cooper Discoverer St Maxx with 17x9 0mm offset wheels but find conflicting opinions about if they will rub or not. Will they be too tight?

    If tires can rub stock they can still rub lifted, unless you lower your bump stops.

    Depends on what your worries about rubbing. The 5” bs could be an issue with the uca. Possibly some fender rub also because of the 9” wheel width.

    Should I go for a 8-8.5" wheel width then?
