    Stacked spacer lift, 22x12 wheels with stretched 33's, tow mirrors, bull nuts.
    If you dont wanna compromise your Baja components, sell the 285's and buy 265/75/16's.

    With the spacer lift, I'm surprised 285's don't work.

    Hell, I just had a buddy put 285's on his fully STOCK Tacoma and only rubbed a little at on his upper control arms (I believe?).

    He ended up taking them off as he didn't want to change his suspension but it still worked for the most part.

    You could go 275/70/17's for sure.

    The Baja suspension is pretty dope and not worth changing just to accommodate a larger tire. Unless you upgrade to Fox, or ICON's to accomplish the lift you need, you'll more than likely be downgrading. That's especially true if you go everyone's favorite 5100's...

    Let me know how big you ended up going, and what all it entailed. I will be purchasing some new tires in spring!
