    So I just did a cmc to my 2016 Tacoma , and it turned out pretty good. I think I only removed about a half inch though.

    I probably should have. That is a lot of chopping.

    Well I am only running 265 70 17. I didn't need a whole lot chopped. The money I would have spent for the metal and then the time to cut the plates. ( no plasma cutter) just made sense to buy them.

    :thumbsup: It was either buy leaf springs and lift the truck higher or spend 30 bucks and chop it. I like where my truck sits and didn't want to lift it any higher.

    My only question is why do you need a CMC with 265/70/17s.

    I was rubbing on sharp turns when my shocks compressed slightly. Yes I do have my camber back at 2.5 , I didn't want to spend 80 bucks to have them move it up to 3.5 or something and they still rubbed.

    It might be that the offset on the wheels he’s running that’s pushing the tires further outward thus more potential to rub? Not sure what wheels he’s got...

    You didn’t need to chop at all with that size. I run a 1/2” talker and didn’t need a chop (32”)

    I don't know what to tell you guys, but I was rubbing. Got tired of hearing it when I back out of my driveway or turning into parking lots. So I went with the CMC.
