2009 Tacoma 4x4 TRD Sport - wheels/tires/lift help

Hello all! New to this after purchasing my Tacoma a few months ago. I bought some 20x9 (+14mm offset) wheels and tires (285/55/20). Looking for help/advice on what lift I will need to make these fit. Will I need a 4” or 6” lift? Will I need to make any modifications in the wheel wheels? Will I need spacers? Any help/advice is appreciated.

 

Going 285’s …..you will need to cut to make them fit

 

i'd go 3 inch. I would avoid a 6 inch lift because you have to cut through your cross member to install one of those. You will likely need to do a body cab mount chop and reweld.
