    First month of ownership... This month I'm removing front air dam, and also Rhino lining the bed.
    The 285s should fit depending on the width. Say a 70 or a 65 would be very workable without trimming. Assuming you take off the mud flaps of course.

    A '14 with 285/70/17's w/Duratracs and 3" Toytec. Some rubbing on full lock, haven't done any wheeling yet but am planning on doing some minor trimming soon. Rubbing is not that bad for me as a daily driver.

    Need to trim just a little plastic near the cab mount. Doesn't hit the cab mount at the moment. Still need to get it aligned so I don't know if that will change that

    Drives great! Can't tell any difference from stock as far as any wandering goes. People on here say 2.5* is perfect, but I'm sure it didn't come from the factory that way.

    Thats all that matters if it track well...you can't go by what others say is the best Caster setting..there are way too many variables involved with all the different setups we run..Some Guys swear that a 1.7* tracks bests for them..other Guys will say that it takes 3+* of caster to roll straight...chances are you'll have to have a few alignments to zero in on the best numbers for your Taco, especially if its lifted and larger tires...

    I'm currently running the OME heavy 2" lift with 285/75-16 Toyo AT2's. No rubbing or trimming at all so far. Haven't done any extreme off roading yet, but it can hop curbs no problem.

    2010 with T|X wheels...apparently I get about 2.25" of lift with the OME setup; not sure if that's going to settle any more or not...
