    Is a 2 inch wheel spacer a good size?

    1" will bring you flush with the lug studs and lowest you can go without trimming...unless the wheels have recesses in them, then you can go .75"

    i.e. FN Wheels 5-star
    [​IMG]

    those recesses allow you to go with <1" spacers and not have to chop your studs

    most factory wheels, people run 1.25"...seems like if you shoot for 4-4.5" backspacing, you'll be able to fit most any tire size (that is reasonable with our trucks)

    check the back of the tires for those recesses (i'm pretty sure toyota wheels have them)...if they are there, you can go anywhere from .75" and up...

    if they are the 16x7 TRD off road wheels, it looks like they are 5.25" backspacing (http://www.tacomaworld.com/forum/wheels-tires/30754-wheel-specs.html). you'd be fine with .75"-1.25" to bring you in that 4-4.5" BS

    for example, i have pro comp 7089 17x8 right now that are 4.5" BS and i've run 285/70/17 for years and recently ran 305/70/17 and still had clearance (given i had aftermarket UCAs which offer a bit more clearance).

    so i'd say a 1" or 1.25" would be a good bet...you can usually find 1.25" spacers for sale frequently on here

    Suspension is installed!

    Didn't get very much up front. Only 1/2" or so. I need to measure definitely got over 2" in the rear.
