Just need a little bit of direction

I have had my 19 MGM TRD 4x4 Sport DCSB for nearly two months. I I have been all over Google and the forum's search, and I would just like to have some clear direction and opinion. I would prefer to not have to admit the number of YouTube videos that I have watched.

There is so much that I want to do, but I think I need to start with the lift, wheels, and tires. I am looking for wheels that are similar to steel bullet holes, less spokes. I am not too sure on the ballpark of the offset that I should be looking for, but I do have a few picked out. I had previously used Cooper Maxxx Discover A/T, but I am now looking at the KO2. I would prefer 275/70r17, but I am somewhat flexible.

The lift is the big deciding factor in both the wheels and the tires. I would like to not have to do any melting or shaving to prevent rubbing. I had a 2in Old Man Emu on my last vehicle and would like closer to 3in now. The fox ultimate 3in suspension lift looks great, but the price tag of 4k looks a little steep. I would like to have a coil over full suspension lift only because I heard blocks really affect the ride. I have been limited on the non salesperson information that I have been able to find.

I do appreciate any and all help and opinions that are provided. Also, I know the tire may be pushing it. I would like the widest selection with the highest sidewall, but I'd rather go down than up in wheel diameter. Thanks again.

 

I'll get you started.

KO2 = good. Run them on my F150. Several friends run on Tacomas, great all around tire. Get the C load.
Even with a 275/70r17, depending on offset, you'll still rub with a lift.
Offset is likely gonna be -12mm, unless you want to go outside the wheel wheels a lot, then more like -44mm ish (not for me).
IF you choose a spidertrax spacer and factory wheels, 1" to 1.25" is good. 1.25" is about what a -12mm offset would be with aftermarkets, give or take.

Had the OME lift. Rode kinda rough, especially unloaded. ADS is good stuff, but pricey. Fox is fine, but I think Icon is better for the money. Never count out a good set of Bilstein 5100 or 5160s in the rear.

Add a leaf might be a better value than a dakar rear.

Talk to Marie at Headstrong Off road. Yes, she's sales, but she also sells like a million Tacoma/4Runner/Toyota lifts a year and knows what is up.

2" - factory UCAs are likely ok. 3", you'll need to upgrade them.

That should keep you busy for a while
