    I bought a 2016 SR Quad cab earlier this year and love it. Although I was curious into different suspension lifts and tires to go along with it. I'd like to know what kind of recommendations that you guys would possibly have. Thanks!

    With suspension it's a pretty broad recommendation. You'll get a lot of people recommend different things. If you ask me it's what you want with look, performance, and what your budget can afford. A pretty typical inexpensive recommendation is a level kit with some All-Terrain tires. Or you can go to the extreme and do a long travel suspension kit with some huge tires and beadlock wheels. You need to give more specifics on what you want.

    Gotcha. Well I'm mostly going for just the aesthetics. I really only take, coolers, gun, camping and fishing gear in the bed and don't really go off roading in it just the occasional dirt roads to get around. So I'm pretty new when it comes to looking for the right suspension. As for the tires I'm seeing that I could go up to 285/70R16

    If you go 3", you can stuff a 285 75 16 in the wheel well. I do quoit any rubbing.

    Is the truck 4 wheel drive?

    The guys that do 3 - 4" is more than just a lift. Your talking diff kits and long travel kits. They are the serious Wheelers. If you have the money for that, DO IT! If your like me that really doesn't want to spend more than $2,000. A leveling kit and some meatier tires would be your best bet. There are also inbetween kits you could get for $4,000 - $5,000 that'll get you about a 2 - 3" lift without the major modifications. Look at some kits at places like Toytec, OME, and allpro.
