    I have been a lifelong Tundra guy (owned 6) and recently traded to the Taco. I have a 2019 TRD Sport - bone stock. I love everything about it.

    I would really like to look at getting a conservative lift or level done to it. I'd also like to increase the tire size, but keep the 17" diameter and change that style.

    Any suggestions where I would start? I never modded any of my Tundras, and have no idea where to begin. Thanks in advance.

    Welcome to TW!

    265/70/17 is the biggest tire with no lift or modification of any kind. Can't speak on lifts though

    Welcome, if you love it as is... then leave it alone. No lift, no bigger tires. Just leave it stock. At least for now.:hattip:

    I do love it, but I'm getting the fever to mod it some. I see so many that look great.

    265/70/17 on a 0 to +4 offset wheel shouldn't rub on stock suspension.

    If you want a small lift, I would do 5100s with 885 coils and 1" block or AAL in the rear. Here is my truck back when I had that setup on 265/70/17 tires & wheels -12 offset.

    LED interior, license plate, and fog lights. More to come.
    Depending on what offset wheels you choose you may or may not get significant rubbing with a 265/70/17. A good bang for your buck lift is Bilstein 5100 shocks/struts (front struts are height adjustable via a movable lower perch) and then in the rear a multileaf add-a-leaf to raise it and help the weak stock springs.

    Need to steer this person in the right direction... or they will sacrifice a lot of money and time, plus keeping him/her from starting new threads about noises and typical weird shit that happens when you start messing with sh#$!

    A SL load rated 265/70/17 on a 17x7.5 or a 17x8 with 0 offset is what you will want.
