    Thanks for the info.

    I want to run the lowest offset wheels because I don't want a run spacers.
    If everybody could post their wheel offset front and rear I'll see what's the lowest I can safely run.

    Thanks

    I think it depends on year and rim specifically. I want to say that with the 09+ they changed the caliper size?? I ran into that problem. Unfortunately I had to go with a spacer..

    I dont know the brand of spacer. Allen Tire Co put them on. I think it was 9mm or something like that. I have 4.5" BS 16x8 Enduros and they rubbed the caliper without the spacer. They also required ET lugs.

    for a first gen 5 lug? you have 2 options up front coil spacers or spindles. spindles being in your height range. and thay arent cheap. blocks for the rear will lower because its spring under axle. lift for the rear aal or shackles

    I learned the hard way... There is very little to no aftermarket support for 5lug Taco.

    Trust me if I was purchasing a truck over again, I would get at least access cab prerunner. Regular cab sucks ass!
