    Hey! Does anyone know if 33 inch tires will fit on a 2009 tacoma with a leveling kit?

    Thanks!

    Define: "fit".

    Technically you will be able to mount them, but you wont be able to turn the wheel without rubbing everywhere.

    Lots of work but you can clear 33s with just the leveling kit.

    They will "fit" you might not be able to turn at full lock. I have a 3" lift up front and I have had to cut, trim and bash shit to death and I still rub Offroad.

    On the road, you can technically be "fine", but off pavement might be a different story.

    Wheel and tires specs come into play too.

    My 255/85/16s are 33.5 with a narrow tread profile and hardly rubbed when the front was "leveled"(see what I did there?) with everything else stock up front.

    Edit: I run them on stock 2nd gen Tacoma steel wheels.

    OP, this is the most commonly asked question by new members. It's gotten to the point that even asking this question is comical (as you can already see). The short answer is "no" (unless you're willing to put in a lot of extra work to get them to fit properly, but the fact that you're even asking this question tells us that you're not willing to put in that extra work). Your options would be to go with a smaller tire or go with a bigger (actual) lift.

    Most of these types of questions can be answered with a quick google search in less time than it takes to sign up for a chat forum and start a thread.

    Welcome aboard. Don't let the hazing get you.

    Doesn't really matter how much lift you have, that only helps you clear the tires at ride height. Your tires range of motion is still the same. When I was running 33s, they would rub the top of the inner fender when stuffed hard. 285/75/16 MTRs.
