    3" lift, roof rack, tint, looking for tires at the moment...
    Recently purchased a 2017 Tacoma Sport. All stock. Couldn't wait to put a suspension lift on it. 2.5" front 3" back. Got an alignment the same day. I got tunnel vision & didn't think about asking them to put 1.25 spacers on to offset my tires. I like the look much better. Either going with Toyo Open Countrys OR BFG ko2s. 265/70r17 <--(stock) Question is..... Will I need to re-align my truck after I put the new tires & spacers on??

    Safest bet is to "always" get an alignment after you mess with anything. But given you just got one and it's only spacers I wouldn't think so.

    Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

    I would if for any reason you have a defect in a tire that’s not immediately noticeable then down the road when you would need to warranty it the first thing they’ll ask for is proof of alignment after the new tire install
