    I’m new to this forum, I need tire recommendations, I added a leveling kit (3in spacers in the front and 2in spacers in the back) for my 2012 Tacoma Prerunner 2WD. I want to change my tires to go bigger. What’s the biggest tire to put on my stock wheels?

    Will a 33in tire rub the fenders or my UCA? If so, will having wheel spacers (1 1/4” or 1 1/2”) help?

    Or is 265/70/r17 the safest bet?

    Thank you in advance!

    OP this same question or similar question has been asked a zillion times here on TW. That’s why Accipiter13 said to do a cursory search (here on TW). Questions on tires, oil, batteries and a couple others are asked over and over and over, often by new guys. And all similar questions have dozens or even hundreds of responses.
    Welcome to TW, lot of good people and information here. Also a couple laptop warrior jerks too.
