    Was looking to see if anyone had a tacoma that has a leveling kit or lift kit but with the tire size 275/70/r16 or maybe close to it to see if I like it or if I should wait until its time for new tires to get it. Thanks.

    You wont see them like this. You normally see 3" up front and 2" in the back to level out the truck. Thats the lift I have.

    If it lifts the rear as well, is it really called a leveling kit? I thought that's when it became a lift kit?

    Correct. Some people think a leveling kit lifts the back to but not sure why they think that? :cool:
