    I have a 1998 Toyota Tacoma with a 2 1/2 inch leveling kit. I just bought a set of wheels with an offset of +18 and a set of nitto mud grapplers 33/12.5/18. Y'all think I'll scrub?

    Yes. From everything I've read here, 33/12.5's require some trimming even with a 3" lift to avoid rubbing. Search for the pinch-weld mod.

    "leveling kit" meaning it's only the front that's lifted? or is it spacer and blocks? cause if only the front you will probably rub at some point on the rear

    most 33" will rub some plastic here or there, regardless of width. you may even want/have to remove the mud flaps as the pinch weld area is the common rub point
