    I am looking to lift my 2016 TRD Sport, 2WD. Any suggestions or advise would be greatly appreciated. I live in Arizona and looking for a place to install a lift for me or Bilstein 5100 shocks. I would like a 3 inch lift so I can put on larger tires. Do I need an off set rims? Thank you in advance.

    Welcome to TW...

    Here's your best source of information.

    Seriously, you asked about 2 very popular questions.1) what lift, or how big and 2) largest tire size without rubbing.

    Figure out what you want for tire size (what you need for your intended use or look) and go from there.

    Helpful hint, lift does not equal bigger tire. Width is a much bigger factor... and get ready to :sawzall:

    Welcome to Tacomaworld my fellow Arizonan. You don't need a lift to fit bigger tires. You can fit 33's without any mods at all. 255/85/16 is just about 1/2" skinnier than stock tires but something like 3" taller.
