    Truck has the toytech 3 inch lift on it currently. I am considering doing a inch body and going for somthing around a 34 inch tire. My question is with a 3 inch lift and a 1 inch body is that possible or could I go 35s?

    I know toytec says you can achieve a 285/75/r16! With the 3 inch lift asking as you have a 4.5 back spacing in your rims. But what can I get if I add their 1 inch body lift into play?

    I have a 3" lift, running 285/70/R17s with no spacers or anything, roughly 33".

    The only cutting I had to do was a small bit of the plastic inside the wheel well, because it was rubbing while turning.

    No rubbing anywhere else since I trimmed the little bit of plastic

    For 35s, I would go with an aftermarket rim with a good bit of backspacing to pull the tire away from the frame and suspension. Next I would do a cab mount chop and trim fenders where needed.

    I plan on going with a 18inch rim that has a 4.5 back spacing. Id like to run a 295/70/r18 witch transfers over to a 34.3/11.6/r18. I don't want to have to trim the fenders if possible. That's why I was considering doing a inch body with the 3 inch lift I already have.

    When I say trim fenders, your really only trimming the back 3" of the fender. And smashing the pinch weld back.1. Grab hammer. 2. Watch Thor. 3. Do Work!

    What type of driving do you do? Pavement princess or offroading?

    If you go 35's prepare to cut a LOT, ditch the fender liners and buy a snorkel to protect your engine

    I would stick to 33's, 34's or bigger will require some trimming and cmc. I had a 3'' toytec lift on my access cab with 32.5s and had to do some plastic inner trimming.

    I was running the TRD beadlocks you see on the pros with trail grapplers.
