    I just recently got a 2005 Tacoma and I’ve taken it into the woods, but it scrapes against the back of the front fenders. Sometimes even just turning into my driveway and I hit a dip in the ground. Any time it flexes and you turn it scrapes super bad. The tires are almost bald too so I have no clue how the previous owners managed this with full tread. Should I drop down to 33’s? The thing turns like a limo and I just want to use it as a daily that I sometimes take into the woods/camping, a little bit of fun but nothing too crazy. Anybody else have a problem with scraping with 35’s?

    Trim time! Or just go down to 33s if you’re not doing hardcore wheeling with it. Better mpgs as a DD as well.

    33 is your best choice.

    You're gonna have to do a lot of trimming and cutting to properly fit 35's

    Your solution is to live with the rubbing, cut shit out of the way so it doesn't rub, or go to a smaller tire. Personally I'd just cut shit out of the way because 6" lift and 33s looks silly to me.
