    I'm about to pull the trigger on a '19 TRD OR & need suggestions. I'm looking at the Fox complete kits from Headstrong. I'd like to run 285/70/17s with no rubbing. The truck will be used aprox 80% road, 20% offroad.

    Would one of these kits be a good option, and if so which one? Is there any reason not to go with one of these, aside from price and the fact that it might be overkill? Also, would I need to do a cmc?

    IMO it sounds like the Fox kit may be more than what you need. I'd look into a Bilstein/Old Man Emu kit with a rear AAL or the Eibach Pro lift kit. I went for Bilstein 5100 OME 887 and 1.5" AAL. I am looking to install them myself soon.

    Current common wisdom says a CMC is probably necessary for 285/70 - 17’s (no rubbing).

    Thanks for the replies. What would be a good lift setup if I were to run 265/75/16s?
