New 3" Lift Installed Need Tire/Rim Help

So I finally bought and installed a 3" OME lift kit from toytec. I'm looking to replace my rims but don't know if I should get 17X8.5 or 18X9. Also do I need wheel spacers? Please leave a tire size recommendation with your opinion of tires. Here is a link of the rim I want: http://www.wheelsbymbmotoring.com/product.php?wheel=Chaos

And here are some pics of the new lift:

 

Personally, i would do 285/75/17 tires with the (obviously) the 17" wheels

EDIT: truck looks great!

 

Thanks I fell in love all over again. (12 hours of hard laber might have contributed)

 

Nice looking rig, did u do the 885 coils w spacer?

 

Thanks and yes

 

Looks great, how much did it set you back

 

$900 for the lift (front pre-assembled)
$680 for Total Chaos UCA's
$75 in misc. tools and new jackstands to hold the weight of the truck

So Overall about $1655.

 

Nice looking truck! I vote stay with 17's and buy some 285's. $1,600 is not bad at all. Did you get the Dakar leafs?

 

No That would've jacked it up another $300 or so. I did the lift mainly for looks. the performance is a bonus especially now that I've actually found some places to take my truck off road.

 

285's with 17's all day long.

 

I don't know the metric conversion for the lug spacing (you want TRD Sport Alloy Wheels: 17x7.5, +30 mm offset, 5.5" backspacing, 6x5.5" bolt pattern, 108 mm hub bore). But the 17 x 8.5s are only 5 lug.

I'm really interested in how this turns out when you're done. I subscribed to this thread to see. Would you please post pics in here when you are done with the addition of wheels/tires?

 

looks good! wish i had the balls to just go and get it done. but im worried that if something was to go wrong, then it wouldnt be covered on the warranty. but it looks great!

 

I have 265/70R17s and they're plenty for me. I only OR maybe 1-2/yr and those wider 285s will kill what little MPG I have. And with the -12 offset on my wheels, the stance is aggro enough.

 

i agree with this. as far as tires BFGoodrich has a good all terrain tire. I have goodyear wranglers on mine and I love them. They are beefy but still do great on and off road and are quiet. Not so good when the roads are wet though.

 

toyteclifts.com has those parts for cheaper; much cheaper.

 

Looks good! I would keep the stock wheels though. I've always liked the sport wheels.

I think I've seen your truck around town. I work in Novato by Moylan's. I've got a white DCLB SR5 lifted with an ARB.
