    Need an expert opinion. I use this truck in my medical supply business and it has a Undercover Flex cover and a drawer slide for light cargo (sub 100 pounds)

    I just bought a leveling kit that should pick up front by 2 3/4' front and 1 3/4" rear on my TRD Sport gen 3 Here's the kit

    2005-2016 Tacoma Lift Kit 3" Front Strut Spacers + 2" Rear Block

    Plan on going with these tires (have them on my F250 and they are best I've ever owned for 99% street use) .. 32.71" tall
    • 285/70R17 / 10 Ply Nitto Terra Grappler Tires 126 R Set of 4
    Thanks in advance!

    I'll also say I know there are a few out there that can nail the set up pro's and con's quickly instead of the hours I've searched here to bring the combination numbers together. If it scrubs once in a while on a hard downhill driveway I can live with it but I'd like a realistic opinion if this is a good set up, okay with a few issues set up, or Danger Will Robinson set up. You guys have been my source for info...so gracias!

    if you don't care about how it rides and just how it looks, spacers are for you. If you care about offroad performance drop spacers and pick up coil-overs and uca's....of course you'll need leaf packs or aal's for the rear.

    I'll be on road 99.5% of the time if that makes a difference. The tires I'm rock solid on because they are on my F250 and are essentially dump truck tough, great ride, and can't wear em out (I tow my race trailer cross country and rip around town on them). Is there a geometry issue with this set up or is it okay for street and wouldn't be for Off road? Thanks for any all response....
