    285/75/16 tires. Just short of 33" and a pro comp 3" lift. I'm two states away from the seller, but had my father take it for a test drive/check it out. Now i'm just anxiously waiting for some leave time to pick it up!

    God am I happy to hear that. My only Tacoma background knowledge is from a childhood of always wanting a small toyota truck. I saw the impulse build, im rocking chrome mickey thompsons on this. If I had my way they'd be black... :D

    Shes going to be a beauty. Speaking of lifts.... it just dawned on me... not that I will or anything, but I no longer drive a uni-body jeep. I can BODY lift my vehicle! That's a punch to the nuts. :p

    yeah, you can body lift this truck. I personally wouldn't. on these trucks a lot of the frame shows and it just doesnt look good IMO. Tacotron had a custom bumper built which hid his body lift from the front, and it looked great!

    I'm happy with my three inches for now. My EXTREME off road days are over with the farewells to my jeep. My taco will be my daily driver/mild trail rig/work truck.
