Looking to level and upgrade tires

2019 tundra platinum completely stock. I’m looking to level out the truck and upgrade tires to more aggressive look. Opinions? Looked into the RC 1.75” level for the front.

 

I like these Toyota 18 inch rims and with beefier tires would look good on your truck.

 

I know this is a month old post, maybe you found a solution.... and I know this has been covered hundreds of times on other posts and forums but I understand... At least somebody on the interweb can search and find a little bit of help, maybe


Do you plan on doing it yourself or have it installed ?

Just know that you will have to cut the studs on the coilovers . No big deal.

(With 2.5" total lift spacers there was more than enough bolt/stud left to go back to stock if ever wanted or needed. IDK about 1.75" )

You can use a cut off wheel/disc and cut then round over the tops of the studs. You can get a cheapo air one that works great for about $15 but even a 10gal air compressor can only do 1 stud at a time. DO NOT try to use a hacksaw or jigsaw or sawzall...

Keep in mind you have to take a LOT of the front end apart and you will need an alignment after. Search threads for proper torque specs because the instructions may be incorrect!!! You will need a 200ft-lb torque wrench and using an extra small jack and ratchet straps to hold the A-arms really helps (In addition to jack stands and chocks). I figured out that holding the A-arms together with ratchet straps is the way to go, but I am not a Toyota professional ....

I did 2.5" front lift on a Crewmax and it leveled out well. (Larger tires though).

With 2.5" and under alignment should be in spec when you have it done. 2.5" was maxed out on mine, but zero'd in spec. All trucks are different, some more, some less.... 3" was "in spec" but visually obvious that it was not.... 1.75" should not be an issue for alignment but get it done during the install or ASAP afterwards using old tires because you will chew up the tires on the sides/edges after lifting, even with just a few miles....

Anyways, good luck.

Edit: Ohh yeah btw, most spacers are all basically the same thing (unless you get the cheapo Chineese knock off)... Summit had a good deal on store brand (same as the name brand they sell but in a Summit box)... So don't get stuck on just a name. The TC I had came with excellent instructions that were WRONG, or let me say "Incorrect" instead... The Summit ones had no instructions but were much less expensive.

Just saying....
