    I have a 2003 Tacoma, I am putting a 3" lift on it and was wondering what is the largest size tire I could put on it?

    Sorry to ask a question within a question thread by will 285/75R16 work with just a 2" lift in the front? I am planning on installing fox racing 2.0 coil-overs which only give up to 2" in the front.

    This is probably the 2nd most asked question on this site. The search bar is your friend :D

    But, to answer your question, 33" is the biggest you can go without worrying about a cab mount chop, rubbing, re-gearing, etc.

    IMO doesn't matter what size lift you get. Any tire over 31" will rub when flexed in the front.
