    if you lift the taco 2 1/2 inches 245's are going to look even smaller than they do on a stock taco.

    Other than that I don't really know anything about the lift you are asking about.

    this is the lift on my truck. if your going to install it yourself then to me this is a big money saver and sounds like a better lift AND its 3" with the top plate spacer.

    this plus rims and tires ran me about 2800 but i got the TRD beadlocks and 265's and had it installed at 4wheelparts but like another member said the 245 are going to look goofy even if they are AT's

    Thanks! Is it relatively easy to install yourself?
