    I wanna lift my Tacoma 6 inches, would it be better to go with 33" or 35" tires what looks better, what performs better? And if I did do the 35" tires, would I absolutely have to regear and trim my fenders? I wanna do some moderate off roading and I have a few recreational trailers that are like 3,000-4,000 pounds? Ps I wanna run 20" rims

    Welcome to TW. The place where all your Tacoma dreams come true. For towing info I'd google "Tacoma towing bible" or something like it. Has lots of good reading. For the 6" lift + 20" rims + 35s that's off-roading ready, you're gonna get some great answers here (or more like very good reasons why you shouldn't). Then you'll think "I should have gotten a jeep."

    Sorry new to this didn't get enough feedback on the first one so I thought it would be good to do a second one for more feed back.

    No worries. Next time that happens, just make a new post in your thread. This is called "bumping" because it bumps it back up to the top of the list since it's got a recent post in it.

    Well said Henry. OP there is a lot of time, $$ and irreversible mods required to do 6" the right way on a Tacoma, which is why most lift up to 3" then call it good. TW already has all of the information you need to make an informed decision. The search field is your friend.
