    Hey Everybody!
    I am new to the Tacoma world and man am I enjoying it! I am slowly modifying it to my liking and am having a hard time figuring out lift kits.

    I know I will be adding on 275/70/17 tires to my truck but have no clue what kind of lift to get to avoid rubbing . I plan on doing zero off-roading other than driving on construction sites for work. Other than that all street driving. I basically just need something to accommodate these bigger tires without breaking the bank!
    any recommendations???
    Links appreciated!!

    All the things!
    There's plenty of threads to read on this subject, but one thing you should get familiar with is, with IFS, lift=/=bigger tires.

    Good luck.

    You don't necessarily need to lift to fit bigger tires. Watch this

    Start w/ Bilstien 5100s w/ either Eibach or OME springs. For the rear go w/ AAL or a full leaf pack (Icon, Dobinson, etc.... - depending upon budget) and buy wheels w/ the proper specs (Diameter: 17" Width: 8" Bolt pattern (PCD): 6x139.7mm Offset: -10mm Backspacing: 4.1")

    This should be a mandatory part of the starter pack when joining Tacomaworld, along with his other videos.

    Been watching some more videos, does anyone know of someone that sells a thinner front swaybar?
