    Short answer is no not without a ton of modifications, front suspension is completely different including how it mounts to the frame.

    my adjective was to put some stock TRD wheels on it but if I can’t, that’s OK. I’m also wondering if I could put some 31x12.50 on the stock five lug wheels?

    IMG_3097.jpg IMG_3153.jpg I currently have a 2003 Tacoma a 285x70x16 that I’m selling. I bought a base model standard cab 2013 truck and I just wanted to give it a little lift maybe a leveling kit and just put some smaller aggressive tires on it. I’m a little tired of the rough ride on my 2003. I guess I’m getting older LOL .

    I can't answer that but I bet you can find it in the 5 lug section.

    There is a fab tech on my black truck with a spacer on top which I believe might’ve lifted it 5 inches. I bought it used with the lift kit already on there. Obviously my silver truck is at stock height right now, but I wouldn’t mind to pick it up a little bit. What are your thoughts?

    The 5 lug suspension is very different then the 6 lug. Very little interchanges. So when buying parts proceed with caution. Some places don't even list 5 lug bits.

    But as @Dm93 mentions, you can learn a lot in the 5 lug forum.

    Cool guys thanks for the info. I will look that up in the five little thread , like I said I’m not looking to go sky high with this truck just a little lift on. Kind of tired of bouncing around right now, my wife has a forerunner and that’s high enough for me, but I wouldn’t mind fixing this little standard cab up.

    Hey Clearwater bill I saw a truck just like mine with the stock rims just like mine on 31x12.50x15 tires now I don’t know if the guy had a lift or not. The truck was a little damaged from an accident, but I saw it at a body shop that I was at that’s where I got the idea of maybe fitting those on my truck.
