    guys,

    im currently looking to install a lift kit on my 17 Taco SR5 (http://www.roughcountry.com/toyota-suspension-lift-kit-745c.html) but i wanna keep the stock wheels and tires for now, until i get the cash for bigger tires.

    Is this something that is worth doing? or if its even possible? or should i just deal with it and save the money to do it all together. I ask this because i kinda like the look of the stock wheels.

    Need your opinions and i apologize if its a duplicated post!

    Thanks in advance. :)

    Save money for a better lift besides Junk Country. That would be step one, then the tires and wheels

    People frown on spacer lifts on TW. So, prepare yourself. Though to answer your question: it won't cause problems at all, and will look fine until you get the bug for more.

    Though for the record - I agree with unchained's comment above. Look at Bilstein or Old Man Emu. They both sell used for cheap on TW all the time.

    If you want that style lift, at least go with LowRange Offroads version.
