    I'm going to get straight to the point. I want to lift my 2016 tacoma trd offroad. I need some ideas / suggestions. I don't want to go cheap. But I also don't want to break the bank.

    Should I talk to the dealership and see what they would charge for a lift installed. Also wheel and tires. I don't need nothing to high. My 10 year old son still needs to be able to get in by himself.

    I want to have an aggressive stance but not bulging tires. Also grill tips. I have the inferno color.

    Thank you in advance.

    The lifts most dealers put on their trucks are crap. Mostly spacer lifts. You need to give some sort of a budget and how high you'd like to lift before you can get any advice.

    $2000-3000. 3inch lift. I guess would be more than enough for a decent tire clearance

    Do some research. Find out what kind of complications can come with a full 3". Do you just want to level it out, or do you want to lift the rear as well? Are you going to off-road it, or just want it to look good? I spent hours researching TW before I did anything and it paid off.

    Lol isn't the TRD offroad already lifted vs other trims?

    Looks like 2 ton3 would work then
