    Anyone running wheel spacers on theirs stock wheels? Think it would look pretty cool bumping the wheels out further without upgrading the rubber.

    Man, that sounds like a lot of fun. Have all the mods noted been worth it?

    I think slowly you're going to see all '22 pros with the bump! Evidently, it's the only way to fit 33"s with that fancy new UCA.

    @JRuss505 is running some 0.75” bora spacers, if I remember correctly, with 285s that look awesome in my opinion.

    Stoptech brakes are literally a lifesaver. Night and day difference, and that might be underselling it. This is my second 3rd GEN and the brakes have always been by far the weakest link IMO. This kit cut the brake distance around 30-40%. No more massive nose diving also, the truck just squats down now. I drive a lot on the highway and panic stops over blind hillcrests are very real on my stretch of I95.

    Makes sense why you'd invest in them! It has me thinking I should consider heading in that direction...mind sharing how much you paid for that setup?

    Browns is fun, just be careful of what trails you do hit considering there are a ton of different options there. Lolo Pass up in Hood is fun too when it’s snowing.

    Wife loved the rain, and I enjoyed wheeling in it- but I hated never having a clean truck. Lol

    Going to need a CMR if you want anything larger than 33s. Did a CMC for 33’s and went to 35s and rubbed like mad on a 3” lift

    You will absolutely not regret it. For the brakes it ran me somewhere around 3500 bucks. Hard to say how much I spent on install cause I got a bunch other stuff done at the same time. You gotta call Tom over at SOS performance. Mention Tacoma World and they should hook you up with something between 10–15% off. I also got a couple hundred extra off because of some extremely light scuffing on the top of the front calipers (I’ll never see it with the wheels on).

    KDMax-Pro+ Tune, Westcott Designs Lift kit, Copper STT Pro 33"
    Just installed the westcott lift on my 21' and i love it! i got 33" cooper STT pros (285/75r16) and inflated diameter is 32.99" I haven't modified my plastics or anything. And If im turned just right at high speed and turn into a parking lot I will hear it rub the fender flare trim in the wheel well. I will be doing a light trim job on that soon. Off-roading I had no rub that I heard or felt. Could have been just sheer joy of enjoying my truck at the time that deafened me to it lol

    But 34" tires man I don't know. If you do be prepared to do some modifications especially off-roading

    @Formidable has a build thread and did something that might work for you. Also, if you are looking for more reasons to spend your money, his thread will inspire you to do so.

    Thanks! From what I could tell they are “plug and play” wiring but not mounting. I will have to look closer at mine. @Formidable did a clean job and they look great.

    Yes plug and play. Minimal dremmel time. Just need to cut out the top backing portion. File down the edges and you’re done. Doesn’t affect cut off. The rigids are ok for OEM fogs… but they are absolute crap compared with the DD SS3’s.

    Awesome! Do you have a pic of the mounting prior to putting them back into the bumper ?

    Do you have a output photo with and without the covers to show it doesn’t effect output ?

    He has some pics on his build thread. They look brighter than stock, even with the covers.
