    Hey guys, need some input in what to do with my taco. I have a 2011 TRD Sport and I want to do a bit of a lift or level, and some rims and tires. In a perfect world I would throw a 6 inch lift and be a happy camper but I dont want to blow a ton of cash on this project so I am thinking either a 2.5inch level or a 3 inch lift, anybody have any picture or ideas and with each of the options above how big of tires should I go. Any advice is appreciated. Thanks

    Welcome to TW. 6" lift on a Taco is pretty ridiculous. What do you plan on using it for? If it is a mixed use truck truck (highway and off road) I would suggest looking at a 2" lift and 32" tires (265/70R17 or 265/75R16). This avoids all the headaches with a lift like spending $400-500 on UCAs alone and not having to run heavy E load 33" tires which will kill power and ride quality.

    Don't go crazy and ruin a perfectly good truck. 6" is silly, stay 3" max. I have a 4x4 and mine is stock height, it goes anywhere I want it to.

    5100s and a 1" add a leaf with some 265 75 16 or 265 70 17. It'll be a good look. You be roughly 3" lift and about another 2 inches gained with those tires. Essentially a 6" lift
