    2016 you slut
    Its lift and tires time for my 2016 Taco. The problem is, when it comes to mechanical things, and knowing how things work, I'm an idiot. I'm a great hired muscle though..

    Anyways I've done tons of reading and it helped.. about none. What I've concluded is that I need Tacoma World to tell me what to do. Here's what I'm looking at right now:

    Icon Stage 4 with tubular UCA's (really because it gets good reviews and its a complete kit so I cant not know what's going on down there) Also should I go with the 700# spring because I plan to throw dual battery, bumper, and a wench up front?

    Cooper ST Maxx 275/70/17 or K02 275/70/17 tires on my stock TRD Sport rims...I like the way the stock rims look.

    Will that selection work? Can I run 285s?

    Long story short: choose my shit cause I'm car dumb.

    You will most likely rub with a stock wheel with 285s
    definitely go with icon if you have that money and stick with 275/70

    Someday you'll understand how to use it. Until then, leave it alone.

    :D Just following your request sir.

    If you have no idea what you're doing, call Marie at @HeadStrong Off-Road tomorrow. They are the most popular vendor on here for lifts because they're the besr prices and very helpful. She'll walk you through exactly what you want
